Making Art Public is an interdisciplinary project that explores the social role of art and design, examines new forms and strategies of public art, and produces work in the public space and interest. As a point of departure, the group investigates Mission Hill’s histories, geographies and everyday situations for site-responsive projects. Each individual work aims to be both socially and spatially engaging in relation to the surrounding communities.
This exhibition documents the process of the projects, from site visits, research, and preliminary ideas to final proposals and a range of temporary, non-destructive and pedestrian-friendly art interventions in situ.
