About
In Between Zones, an art project that explores how embodied and heterogeneous lived experiences respond to shifting social climates. Through curatorial gestures, the project maps the entanglements between personal narratives and collective conditions.
In Between Zones – A London Art Guerrilla Tour, a research-driven, collaborative art project that unfolds through bold, experimental actions across the city. This initiative invites you to amplify and embrace our embodied and differentiated perceptions of “zone” within the fluid, liminal state of the in-between—between zones, between homes, between visibility and the unseen.
This art guerrilla frames the in-between as both method and metaphor, engaging with diaspora, spatial politics, and speculative modes of resistance through guerrilla artistic interventions across London. Emerging from the lived realities of London’s newcomers and transient residents, the project explores how displacement, marginality, and translocality can generate new aesthetic and political vocabularies.
The art guerrilla resists the polished neutrality of institutional frameworks, favouring instead a series of situated, embodied, and tactical interventions across the city, spanning central and peripheral zones, day and night, private and public realms. We invite artists and observers to craft new cartographies of connection, rooted in critique, intimacy, and rebellious imagination.
