TEXST is an art collective and publishing press based between Bergen, Norway and Helsinki, Finland.

We explore the presence of text in visual art in all of its manifestations. Our title, TEXST, embodies our approach – testing text-based work in any and all forms. Up to this point, this has consisted of workshops, residencies, and a series of collective and individual publications.

TEXST was established in 2016, and is currently Samuel Brzeski, Lucila Mayol, Robin Everett, and Pedro Riva.
