Performative space

Performative space refers to the environment where actions, gestures, and behaviors create meaning and influence social interactions. It’s the physical or conceptual area where our performances—like a speech, a dance, or a protest—occur and have significance. In this space, identity, power, and relationships are shaped through what is said and done. Think of it as the stage where social roles are enacted and reinforced, not just through words but through the physical setting and context that support or challenge those actions. It highlights how space and performance are interconnected in constructing social reality.
