View the recording here

From the comfort of your home, or wherever you want to be, co-create a temporary public art exhibition, internationally, in only a few hours.

Find out more about new ideas in public art, through an inclusive, practical and playful online workshop that reimagines the public sphere in our digital age. The Public Art Experiment is part workshop, part participatory art project, led by Dr Jacek Ludwig Scarso of London Metropolitan University. It invites the participants to consider the following brief:  “Take any space and imagine it as a public art place. What would you create? What themes would you explore? What would your visitors experience?”. 

The recorded workshop is suitable for artists in any medium, as well as students and creative enthusiasts with little or no previous experience of artistic activities who want to find out more about new ideas in public art.
