Moonlighting is to have a second job, typically secretly and at night, in addition to one's regular employment. In beside the point, the phrase seems to get to the flow of things. The production of a full time Graphic Designer and a Customer Experience Manager, beside the point seems an odd intervention by a pair of young professionals.

Embedded within beside the point is a series of invitations for artists to consider a new terrain at FUZZYVIBES. Over the next few weeks, the space will play host to Amy Unkovich, Owen Connors, Lewis Prosser, Ella Sutherland, and Dawn Marble. Unfolding over the following weeks, beside the point will explore new spatial dimensions, and collaborative arrangements.

Dissatisfaction can be a good place to start, and Ophelia King and Nina Lloyd have plenty with regards to the arts. It’s easier to know what you don’t like, than what you do, and teetering on the threshold of total dissatisfaction can keep you lean. The tough part is trying to build a solution, staying productive whilst feeling the impulse to abandon.

While art - it's discourse, it's economy, it's speculative nature - are easy to gripe with, it's the human element involved that’s ultimately sustaining. King and Lloyd’s decor manoeuvres and masquerading play as artists extend upon the arbitrary affections of their friendship. At times their instincts seem nonsensical, as though an indoor pond isn’t something that requires much deliberation or explanation.

beside the point didn’t really make much sense at the time, and it doesn’t necessarily make sense now. It’s best not to worry about what people might think. Better to have a reliable audience of two, confidential ‘in-jokes’ given spatial reign.
