Neo-Monster
a gigantic balloon in the shape of a earth moving machine, a fluffy yet scary metaphor of how irresponsible development can negatively affect our surroundings and our everyday lives.
Trespassers Only
Trespassers Only is an extension of the urban interventions undertaken during the public art project land(of)mine, which explored the notions of land and ideas of home, property, belonging, landscape, ownership in Mumbai.
land(of)mine
The project revolves around the idea of land in the city of Mumbai and its various declinations of territory, ground, soil, landscape, and heritage. How do the notions of space and identity, borders and sharing, possession and cohesion, strife and solidarity, neglect and appropriation come to the surface in the city’s everyday life and define its social environment?
flow/cut
will showcase the works produced during the public art project ‘The Fluid City’. The singular projects will come together allowing new ways of seeing, experiencing & interacting with the element of water
the fluid city
artistic interventions on the paradoxical and contradictory role water plays in a megalopolis such as Mumbai. It surrounds the city and is an integral part of its landscape; yet most people have limited or no access to it. And when it is plentiful during the monsoons, it either washes away or invades people’s houses. In Mumbai, water is both a blessing and a curse.
iamumbai
a cultural campaign that investigates Mumbai’s diverse nature and many selves through the involvement of its inhabitants. This multi-authorial project, curated, developed and produced by ArtO2, has originated by a piece of ready-made poetry written by an anonymous author and found on one of the trains on the central line.
[en]counters - outside in
the confluence of five site-specific projects originated from the city and shifted within the white-washed walls of an art gallery, to investigate Mumbai's divided and contrasted self through the work of 5 contemporary Indian artists. Juxtaposed alongside are video and photographic observations on the city.
[en]counters - talking sites in the city of extremes
[en]counter, a point of meeting and clash at the same time: two opposing elements which define Mumbai/Bombay’s divided self and unique soul. Five Indian artists questioned and explored the city's contrasted nature by carrying out site-specific activities.
our projects
drops of truth
Art puts us in dialogue with the everyday. It urges us to confront, challenge and question it. To observe it from a distance and engage with it. ArtO2 breathes in this space, in the gap between art and life.
Art matters…and breathingartworks. (more)
factory fresh
Products are a daily part of our lives. The marketplace tickles our desire, pushing us to buy and own…are we all consumers? Are we all collectors? How do we deal with the superfluous? ArtO2 wants to explore the dynamics that influence buying and selling patterns and makes available the production of artists and designers. (more)
