About us

WHAT IS APPLIED LIVE ART? Applied Live Art is a term to describe practices that include a hybrid of time-based media options, which include a social component as their primary focus. The practice and research outcomes offer place-keeping as central when working with both site and society. WHO IS APPLIED LIVE ART? The term was coined by artist R.M. Sánchez-Camus, a creative practitioner who develops works of art in collaboration with community partners. They create site-responsive works that activate dialogue, interaction, visual impact and community cohesion. Their interests lay in neighbourhood narratives, hidden mythologies, psychogeography, and outdoor works. Since starting ALAS in 2003 the studio has grown to employ several artists and creative practitioners to produce different exhibitions, events and artworks. Recent community-led projects include Body Offerings at the Wellcome Collection or Scrolled Life Stories at the Horniman Museum.

  • To celebrate National University mental health day, last Thursday members of the ALAS team took to Central Saint Martins for a collaborative project with UAL short courses with workshops surrounding creativity and care. The two workshops took place in a safe space where students and staff were invited in to question how their creativity can be a radical act of care. With 10 creative pledges to choose from such as: Bring compassion to the center by engaging in and celebrating small local acts of everyday creativity Promote and define creativity as an act of care, over and above financial profit and individual entrepreneurship. Enable children and adults to experience the power of their own creativity. People left their reflection for each pledge through text, drawings, graphs or individual conversations with the team. The creative and care pledge workshop challenged people to think outside themselves and see their individual creativity as an act of great care that can inspire, empower and create safety for others. How does your creativity create care?
