What is "art intervention"?
Art intervention is when artists use their work to address or improve social or community issues. These interventions are often site-specific and can take various forms, such as installations, performances, or interactive events, aiming to raise awareness, challenge perceptions, provoke thought, and inspire dialogue. Artists use interventions to address issues like public space, power structures, and community dynamics, creating works that are both a critique and a reimagining of the world around them. Art intervention blurs the line between art and activism, emphasizing the transformative potential of creative actions in everyday life.
