Recently formed in the US in the state of Colorado during the COVID-19
pandemic, the 8 Week Cooperation has been making work to remain creative and active during uncertain times. Meeting twice a week over Zoom, the five members have been in constant conversation to discuss ideas, collaborate,
and give feedback.

Though not physically together, the 8WC is connected through artistic
practice and goals. These members are Jacob Fronk, Alex Inman, K. James,
Claire Simpson, and Denise Zubizarreta.
