Shy Bairns were an artist collective interested in the intersections of contemporary art and bookmaking, and the activation of projects within that space that ran from 2016 - 2022.
Their practice aimed to create more of a conversation between artist/curator, exhibition/artwork, and viewer/reader. Print ran through the core of the practice, utilising zines, print workshops and installations to create collaborative works; interested in ideas of identity, community, popular culture, and interactivity. Their projects ranged from exhibitions about fan culture (Fanspeak at Castlefield Gallery, Manchester, 2019), to contemplating artist development within collectives (Jerwood Arts, London, 2019).
