CIRCA is an art and culture platform with purpose.
We stop the clock on global billboards every evening at 20:21, mobilising the world’s greatest creative minds to broadcast unique works of art that consider our world circa 2021.
Each month, we sell time limited and affordable prints by our exhibiting artists to generate funds for the #CIRCAECONOMY initiative – a circular model we designed to support our free public art programme and create life-changing opportunities for the wider creative community.
Josef O’Connor
Face Valued, 2020
Josef O’Connor (b.1990) is a London based artist whose practice explores
various constructs relating to value and interrogating the space between life
and art, as a vehicle for social change. Face Valued emerged from this period
of social isolation by inviting a digital audience to watch as London-based
artist, Josef O’Connor, painted 100 canvases over a period of seven days with
a value ranging between £1 and £100, before selling them each for ‘Face Value’
and donating the proceeds to The Soup Kitchen.
The canvases are already sold, but he will create one more canvas which will
be open to bids.
