how it began:
Elsewhere invites you to participate in a unique Elesewhere everywhere opportunity. Visiting artists Eliza Fernand, Emma Houlihan & Helena O' Connor (collectively known as Elsewhere Cleaning Inc.) are offering their cleaning and curating expertise; bringing Elsewhere to your very own home.
Elsewhere Cleaning Inc. was born when the three artists met while participating in the Elsewhere residency program. Working within the museum context of Elsewhere, the artists found themselves obsessively cleaning and rearranging items within the collection. Inspired by the Elsewhere ethos of approaching everyday things as art objects, the artists would like to bring this curatorial idea to the larger community. Elsewhere Cleaning Inc. wants to come to your house to clean, rearrange, and curate your objects.
Upon your request for services, a date and time for the cleaning appointment will be arranged. Elsewhere Cleaning Inc. will conduct a brief interview with you on arrival; after which we will clean, rearrange and curate one room of your choosing. Upon completion you will meet with Elsewhere Cleaning Inc. to discuss the results. The intention of the project is to help people consider themselves as curators and artists in their everyday life, and to re-imagine your living space and inspire you to curate other areas in your home.The artists are especially interested in learning more about incidental collections, unplanned conjunctions, and how we create narratives around and place importance on our belongings.
