Central to Temitayo Shonibare’s practice is creating critically engaged interventions that reveal the backstage of the indoctrinated performance that is life. Conducted as social experiments, she brings the subjective interiority of daily encounters to public space using her body as the medium. Through staging actions that disrupt general socialised norms, she plays with the imagined boundaries between public and private spaces - mentally, physically and digitally - questioning who is and what makes up the public. She seeks to expand the site of art making from a physically grounded space to a relational encounter between individuals, affecting how viewers-cum-participants experience the work.
