Public Art Res 05

"Much of the public art that we know today had its inception in site-specific projects. But we in KHOJ would like to propose in this residency a pursuance of public art where the site-specificity transcends from being a mere spatio-physical intervention to becoming an extension of the community within which the project will be situated. It would be interesting to recognize that space within the community is not merely a physical measurement but a social, economic and political entity. It derives its dynamism from the fact that most of these spaces are contested. They become means of expression for the community rather than just a means of transit."
