In the Wild
In the Wild is a space for artist development in the UK, for emerging artists to connect with resources, networks and creative inspiration.

Aims
 * To create an online space by and for emerging artists, where facilities, resources and networks can be shared
 * To foster collectivity and mutuality in UK art communities
 * To value and support each others’ work and communities, which operate largely outside of mainstream and established institutions
 * To strengthen different scales of networks - both local and national, physical and virtual

Ethos
 * Promoting smaller grassroots initiatives over larger, non artist-led studios studios, workshops, galleries
 * Bringing together and sharing accessible content for the benefit of emerging artists in the UK
 * Representing all regions of the UK

This site is a wiki, which makes it easy for an extended group of people to share ideas and resources around a specific purpose. As free and editable online spaces, wikis enable everyone to be both a contributor and a user of the site. If you've never contributed to a wiki or online resource before, don't worry - there are guides in each of the sections outlining how to add your own content and join in discussions.



Resources
A space for templates, guides and walkthroughs - anything from funding your projects to making your own paints.

Networks
An atlas of workshops, facilities, art groups and spaces in the UK, organised by location and by type.

Add you own initiatives and use the atlas to make connections in your area and further afield.

Inspiration
A library of activities, exercises, readings and more.

What is a wiki?
Wikis are websites or databases developed collaboratively by a community of users, allowing any user to add and edit content. They are well suited for gathering knowledge from multiple perspectives, and for sharing information that is evolving.

Into the Wild
This wiki was instigated by Chisenhale Studios' artist development program 'Into the Wild'. We've opened up 'Into the Wild' through initiatives like this wiki, so that other artists can connect with the ideas, information and thinking that’s shared during the program.
