ABOUT

Caddisfly larvae are peculiarly industrious insects that build sculptural protective cases for their bodies. These structures are made of anything they can find in their aquatic habitat, including rocks, plant matter, twigs, and other debris bound together with silk. Similarly, artists often build their thoughts and artworks out of what is available in their environment.

Caddisfly Project is a broadly conceived artist publication. We think of the project as an accretion of the various outputs from the studio. We, like the caddisfly, sculpt the detritus of art-making into something reflective of our environment and our current moment. It is our hope to highlight what is created adjacent to art-making and to shed light on the process of thinking and its role in the production of art. In so doing we hope to find commonalities and reveal idiosyncrasies in the way artists approach their work.
