‘I Find Myself’ invites us to embark on an intimate and transformative journey. Published with the first retrospective exhibition of artist-activist Barbara Steveni (1928–2020), the book presents her influential work as an artist, organiser, negotiator, and pioneer of social practice. Focusing on her collaborative practice, it brings together archival documents, images of the artist at work, assemblage pieces, and Steveni’s efforts with the Artist Placement Group (APG). Her surrealist practice encourages conversation and engages with the performative art of everyday work, reminding us of the importance of art in the context of industrial and governmental processes.
