UNCHORUS 2023 features the practices of the twenty artists who have participated as the third cohort of the Freelands Artist Programme. It contains commissioned texts by 21 writers, poets, philosophers, artists and curators, as well as artists’ interruptions and a lexicon of artist development.
The Freelands Artist Programme was a five-year initiative (2018–2023) by the Freelands Foundation to support 80 emerging artists and strengthen professional art practices across the UK by partnering with four regional arts organisations. Artists received funding, studio time, and development support over two years, culminating in exhibitions and public engagement. The program aimed to foster local art ecosystems, build artists’ networks, and retain artistic talent outside of London, UK.
The publication is designed by Studio Kristin Metho using Boogie School Sans for the cover title and chapter openers. Atlas Grotesk and Optima are used for the body copy and titles.
