Social practice art

Social practice art is a form of artistic expression that focuses on engaging communities and addressing social issues. Unlike traditional art, which is often created for galleries, social practice art takes place in public spaces and involves collaboration with people. The goal is to inspire dialogue, foster relationships, and promote social change through creative activities. Artists may work with communities to explore local interests, narrate shared experiences, or activate social justice initiatives, making art a vehicle for collective empowerment and understanding rather than simply an individual pursuit.
