Futurity of Art in Public Spaces: Site, Materials, and Community

What is public art and how does it impact you? What is the role of the artist and the relationship between the use of materials, the site, and the community? Learning from varied concepts of art in public spaces, such as alternative digital spaces, intimate social relations, interventions, books and zines, outdoor public art spaces, we will learn from past and contemporary examples as we imagine the future of art in public spaces. Through hands-on projects created in 3D form and collective collaborative projects, we will redefine and design the future of art in the public.
