The artists group We Are Publication (WAP) embraces an open and unbound notion of what it means to publish. Collage, cut-up and fragmentation are WAP’s central modes of operation which allow the group to explore multi-form, poly-vocal and durational publications comprising sound, video, posters, sculptural forms, carpets, immersive media, broadcast, performance and printed matter. As such, WAP’s activities form assemblages of encounters and materials that test out and expand what it means to make public.

We Are Publication has produced speculative publications including a radio broadcast and vinyl record Diagram of an Hour (Resonance FM, London, 2016, Curved Pressing, 2017); a handmade rug Notes on a Carpet (Five Years, London, Focal Point Gallery’s Unit Twenty-One, Southend-on- Sea and the London Art Book Fair, Whitechapel Gallery 2017–2018); the exhibition We.Are.Cut.Up. (Pratt Institute, New York and Radiophrenia, CCA Glasgow 2019); and t h e H O L D took place at the Stanley Picker Gallery, Kingston, an exhibition accompanied by a series of live events. Recent video work, Placement does not explain, but cultivates a September garden formed part of London’s Camden Arts Centre, Public Knowledgeprogramme in September 2020.
