Sorika

Sorika is an on-going art project established by Gareth McConnell in 2013. It was originally initiated as a way to collaborate with other artists and with no particular manifesto other than the realising of projects of interest and never dedicated to any specific medium or genre. More recently it has been a way to sell art and editions online. Since its inaugural publication, the novella Horse Latitudes by Chris Wilson in 2013, projects have included , Looking for Looking For Love a reworking of Looking for Love, Tom Wood’s seminal 1980s photo-book, A New Concise Reference Dictionary and Glossary of Usage Terms and Subjects in Contemporary Art by the artist and writer Neal Brown, the co-curation and publication of Smiler: Photographs of London by Mark Cawson, produced in collaboration with the Institute of Contemporary Arts, London and a number of McConnell’s own works including the publications Sex, Drugs & Magick (Book Two), Close Your Eyes and Details Of Sectarian Murals. Sorika works are held in the collections of the British Library, The Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, Walker Art Gallery and the Royal College of Art.
