IT VOIDS

My name is Marc Craig and I am the artist behind ITVOIDS.COM


 This site is essentially a portal that brings together all the different projects I am working on which explore collaboration as a means of expression.


ITVOIDS began in October 2025, from what I observed at Leake Street, the legal graffiti tunnel underneath Waterloo Station, where I have painted since 2014. Those observations led to a personal insight into how creativity works, and despite some interesting dead ends, the journey has brought me to this point.


The easy temptation is to throw the whole project at you at once which is futile as it invariably overwhelms people and loses the thread. The thread is a simple cycle, one that plays out in Leake Street every hour of every day and, I think, in every other kind of creative expression too. I call it SEED / FORM / VOID / FORM / SEED, or SFVFS.


Below you will find my first conceptual artwork introducing it, THE SFVFS CYCLE, which explains the process visually and poetically. There is also a recently completed maths paper, the present manifestation of SFVFS. It is presently unverified, so for now it is art until proven otherwise, but you can see how far it has come.


A plain English document explains how I got from the walls of Leake Street to a maths paper, and in the process a very healthy respect for mathematics.


This is not a polished body of work, very much in the spirit of Leake Street. One door closes and another opens, and it is easy to get lost in a rabbit hole that quickly becomes a warren.


All I ask of you is what I ask of myself: keep an open mind and a healthy sceptical footing.


The balance between those two is a liminal space that never stops surprising me with its treasures.


The project that gave ITVOIDS its impulse is MIND THE MAP, my collaboration with 55 artists across 110 artworks. I use it as the worked example in THE SFVFS CYCLE. Links to that are also below.

MIND THE MAP

MIND THE MAP was where it all started. 


A wonderful introduction in a vast capacity to how SFVFS works. The idea came from using my late father’s collection of maps that he had kept for years. My father always said that everything had a use and I often teased him that if everything he had colected for a use didn’t find a use then technically that was hoarding! So when I found the maps I decided to find a use for them an suddenly found myself inviting a lot of artists to collaborate with me, 55 of them in total.


Initially it was an idea that I would start a map artwork and they would finish it but I soon relapsed that it was only fair for those roles to swap so I ended up creating 110 collaborative artworks which you can see in the exhibition.
