The Value of Portraiture: Painting as Social Practice is a doctoral research project underpinned by the portraits I make: a particular production of painting domestic sized portraits in specific public participatory and community situated contexts, and the ensuing distribution of these objects through various circulations of exchange. The research frames a series of questions about the value of painting people through the circulation of portraiture, painting, social engagement and gift and information exchange, all of which is situated around the alternative economics of post-Capitalism.
