The Society of Affective Archives is an entity dedicated to artistic collaboration, the production of affective archives and the preservation of peripheral knowledge. Inspired by the image of a rhizome, a form wherein multiple paths gather and divide in a continual process of transformation, the collective draws upon the principles of experimentation and creative encounters. Animated by the collection and safeguarding of that which lies on the cusp of disappearing or the margins of consciousness, the Society is a romantic conceptual exploration conceived by founding members Fiona Annis and Véronique La Perrière M. Since 2010, they continue to explore the territory of research and creation in the visual arts.
