Over the last 25 years KCAT studio artists have worked with and built-up connections with organisations and artists both nationally and internationally. The Studio artists wanted to reach out and reconnect with these organisations so that we can rebuild some of these relationships, somewhat lost over time. Re-connections is an exhibition of the KCAT Studio Artists peers in the European context. A selection process took place by the KCAT studio artists selection committee who curated this international group show. It includes works by established artists, from seven national and international supported studios, including KCAT.
