Welcome, to my open collab project, I'm handing over one of my favourite pieces 'Copy Dacface' to you fellow artist, friends and fiends. The aim of the game is to take the design and have fun with it. Pinch a file or two to use as a base/starting block and then add your own twist. You can interact with it in a tradition collaboration sense go down the 50/50 route or take over edit/redesign it and of course steal/copy etc ultimately 'Do You'

When finished email your design/artwork to info@dacarter.org

*Alternatively give yourself the head ache of downloading individual files from the shared google drive below Heads up!

This drive might throw a tantrum on mobile. Desktop only—sorry! 🙃

Copy Dacface - artist statement.

Copy Dacface was meticulously created to question and explore the intricate web of plagiarism, influence and subconscious decision making on a personal level and within the realm of art in general. Mainly in response to the fine line between drawing inspiration and appropriating in creative practice. It encourages us to question, reflect, and engage in conversations about conformity, replication, identity, and the profound concepts of artistic expression and autonomy.
