After You: The Broken Telephone Collection
Nothing is created in isolation.
The Broken Telephone Collection began with a single image — a reference photograph from the Amalfi Coast — which was then placed in the hands of one artist.
From there, the work traveled. Each of the ten women in this collection responded not to the original source, but to the artwork immediately before her. With every exchange, the artist fixated on the component that resonated most deeply; elements were preserved, others distorted, and something entirely new was born.
Over the course of a year, the collection evolved into a visual lineage — a chain of interpretation and transformation. What emerges is thereby not a copy of one, but a collage of many.
The project mirrors the way culture itself is built. Creative practice is inherently iterative; we inherit visual languages, emotional codes, and conceptual frameworks from those who came before us.
Every artist works within a continuum shaped by history, mentorship, and memory. This collection asks us to reconsider originality. Perhaps originality is not invention from nothing, but transformation by association.
After You: The Broken Telephone Collection is a testament to the ripple effect of creativity, and to the invisible threads that bind artists to one another.
