Alexandra Culshaw has developed a practice, which explores the notion of collaborative exchange – the exchange of a commodity, a thought or a moment of interaction between two people. Her interests lie within the potential to mobilise, control or manipulate this exchange. In the project Visiting Artist she has worked with the residents of Henshaw Street, London SE17 to design a piece of furniture intended to replace an existing item from their living room, she then facilitates the production and making of these items. In Interim she will present the old pieces of furniture alongside photographs of the new furniture.
