What is Social Artisty?

  • Social artistry practice describes art that is collaborative, often participatory and involves people as the medium or material of the work.

  • Social art is the application of arts and creativity towards the transformation of individuals, groups and societies by working with your target audience as opposed to for them.

  • A social artist is someone who is part artist, part social-change agent, part facilitator and part visionary. The social artist draws on artistic practice, group dynamics and creative ideas to facilitate change.

  • What a canvas is to a Painter, what a stage is for a Dancer or a lens to a Filmmaker, Community is to a Social Artist.
