... soon coming ... space under construction ... soon coming ...

At the heart the formerly glorious industrial area ,DAA , rejigged out of an old building.

A new form out of the slants of conservation and preservation to present a space for conversation and silence; activity and rest; distraction and flow, the space imbues an elemental play that strikes at boredom with versatility, and distraction with essence.

Alternatively 'Crackzone', DAA is a sphere were absurdity and practicality find each other; in material, form, and sensibility. The space will be activated by a collective of artists, designers and makers under the nebulous Cult Meraki as a place for artistic thrills, conversation, and deep living showcasing that creative praxis can be a critical tool for uplifting lifestyle.

As our worlds connect faster on digital tracks, the creation and dissemination of art and culture turns hyper. The neurotic consumption of ‘content’ spins-off questions on the exchange between muse and artist.

The witness operates mobile display cubes + pods paired with online databases for showcasesat community scale. The project engages

locales to consume art mined from their surroundings. To better fulfil cycles of inspiration, it returns the ‘end image’ to the muse:

Turning creative exchange on more inclusive terms that develop the local gaze, alongside the burgeoning external one.

The cubes + pods have flexible material profiles (clear & opaque), and spatial configurations for showcases in public spaces and over uneven terrains. By connecting visuals with origin environments, the Witness Project intervenes democratic exhibitions: Setting ‘ground discussions’ between time, people, potential and place.
