Performing Public Space is committed to understanding how cultural developments can produce meaningful change within our shared spaces, based on the idea that public space exists only when it is socially performed.

Project called With all due respect. Studenten coloured their hands and arms.

  • Explore your art practice through artistic reserach and its potential in public space.

  • You will get the tools to perform critically and effectively as artist and researcher...

    ... able to navigate complex modes and methods surrounding the contemporary artistic process and result.

  • During the intensive weeks you will investigate, develop and test work in the field.

Student experiences

PPS did not just inform my practice—it reoriented it

Student 2025, China

PPS did not just inform my practice—it reoriented it. I began to see public space as a collaborator, not just a backdrop.

PPS makes me feel public space as dynamic as an event

Carlo Sella

Student 2025, Italy

PPS makes me feel public space as dynamic as an event, as a here-and-now made out of the togetherness of humans and other-than-humans negotiating how we want to coexist. It’s where politics begins.

You design, experiment, document, stay with discomfort, reflect, and make sharp choices

David Limaverde

Tutor, Netherlands / Brazil

PPS isn’t about mastering - it’s about learning to ask better questions through your own practice, while expanding what we understand as public space discourse.You design, experiment, document, stay with discomfort, reflect, and make sharp choices. That’s artistic research!
