One of the hardest things to remove from art, is ego. One way to attempt that task is to collaborate. And that's exactly what was done here. I can't speak to the ego side of things, just the finished results of what sounds like a very cool idea, executed it seems, perfectly. The idea was to distribute a sheet of A3 paper among 4 different artists with the instruction that each one would fill approximately 1/4 of the page, and then send it off to the next in line.

It's an idea that, on paper, seems awesome. But considering the myriad of ways a project like this could go wrong, the results achieved much more. The way these final images flow suggests a single hand, or in the very least, all four artists in the same room working together on a shared, and agreed upon, image. The title image was done by Martin Butler x Joshua Owen x Miss C x  Little Gamgee.

Apparently, the misspelling of collaboration is an oversight by the project's lead and they are aware they made a mistake. Learn more HERE
