A Living Archive of Becoming

Evidence of Becoming celebrates ten years of Assembly through the work of 24 artists whose practices have been shaped by a decade of creative risk-taking, collective care, and self-determination.

Rather than offering a retrospective, the exhibition unfolds as a living archive—bringing together artworks, films, photographs, writing, ephemera, and memories that reveal becoming as an ongoing collective practice. Presenting more than 67 artworks across mediums, the exhibition traces how artists have built community, developed creative practices, and imagined new futures together.

Visitors will encounter tattoo designs, repurposed police barricades, DJ mixes, documentary film, sculpture, painting, music videos, photographs, and archival materials that together map the evolving ecosystem of Assembly.

The works gathered here ask what becomes possible when young people are met with care, resources, and one another.

Ten years later, the evidence is everywhere.

In the work.

In the archive.

In the people.

And in everything that continues.
