Silica is my experimental grants program. The idea is simple: offer no-strings-attached capital – funding, belief, space, tools, network, etc – to a different artist in my life
Silica was inspired by investor syndicates (and provoked by institutional grants)

Something I've been thinking about recently is the decoupling of aesthetic and economic capital in asset-based economies, and how it contributes to cultural stagnation.
It used to be that cultural fluency/education was a proxy for wealth because it was used as the legitimising force to both access wealth and entrench wealth. In asset based economies like where I am in Australia, capital appreciation can often greatly outstrip what you earn through productive income.
The result? If the best way to get ahead is to flip houses, then there’s no real incentive to engage with culture, ideas, or even the world outside your real estate portfolio. Cultural fluency becomes optional. Education becomes ornamental. Therefore, culture stagnates because there's no incentive (outside of personal fulfilment) to create something new.
