The aim of this article is to explore how the strive to form a personal artistry meets the need to be connected to colleges among a group of young art students attending an art school in Sweden and how these strives affect the community they create together. I want to discuss how reflexivity as a meeting between a subjective view on life and collective agreements can be understood among these young artists and how their experiences can influence the understanding of reflexivity in a wider extent. The young artists reflexivity can bee seen as taking place at different levels. To be able to understand these different forms of reflexivity and how they are related to each other I will develop an understanding of the concept reflexivity with help from Anthony Giddens, Scott Lash and Emmanuel Levinas.
