Images from Akin's residency at The Drake Hotel
From Oct 4-16 2014, Akin Collective held residency in The Drake Hotel's Lab space.
Over the course of 12 days in the storefront space, Akin Collective invited past and present members to create new site-specific work in the The Drake's space.
Each day a new artist adopted the space as their studio and created work that not only built off of the works that came before them, but continued to explore the overarching theme of what constitutes a studio, what it means to have a shared working space, and how labour differs in different settings.
These images were taken on the last day of the residency. Please see The Drake's website here for more details. Photographs taken by Jeff Rogers.
