Machine Room is a research project that began in 2003, arising out of a series of conversations between members of the group about painting and its contexts.
The collaboration aims to throw into question the mechanisms and technologies of painting, focusing on an idea of painting as a makeshift, contingent structure, constructed from the interplay and exchange of different histories and working approaches.
