6X is a collective of US based artists. “Mistaken for Strangers” explores the similarities of our seemingly different practices. Ties, which may not consciously be acknowledged at a glance, are visible upon further consideration of approaches to concept, material, and process. 6X traces these threads of commonality, linking each member together through various degrees of separation. Our explorations, interests, and experiences, become part of a greater story; creating an organized narrative using the momentum of these tangential threads. “Mistaken for Strangers” exhibition showcases the innate patterns that stem from the rules we follow in our respective works, provoking consideration of our interconnected world.
