The box as an object serves as a vehicle of sorts, certainly a trajectory / mediating object in its own right. It is presented to each artist as an empty vessel, in anticipation of somehow being filled with the artists' ideas. Within that context, it's important to acknowledge that while the box might appear empty, in actuality, it carries with it the symbolic traces, memories and experiences of all the work that has been made from the various artists within the project up to this point. How each artist responds to the box and to the notion of it being a metaphorical carrier of ideas, inspiration and thoughts, is up to each artist to explore and articulate (TSB project guide for artists).
