Janfamily

Janfamily is a London-based artist collective whose practice operates across photography, performance, installation, and publication. Working with staged domestic scenarios, group portraiture, and collective identity, Janfamily produces images and objects that sit between social document and constructed fiction. Their work has been presented at Riflemaker, London, and in various group contexts connecting them to experimental and post-conceptual British art scenes of the 2000s.

This collection brings together printed matter, announcement cards, and ephemera connected to Janfamily’s exhibitions and publications.
