relational aesthetics
Nicholas Bourriaud coined the term Relational Aesthetics in the 1990’s. According to Bourriaud, relational art encompasses "a set of artistic practices which take as their theoretical and practical point of departure the whole of human relations and their social context, rather than an independent and private space." The artwork creates a social environment in which people come together to participate in a shared activity. Bourriaud claims "the role of artworks is no longer to form imaginary and utopian realities, but to actually be ways of living and models of action within the existing real, whatever scale chosen by the artist."
chaos
Chaos (Ancient Greek: χάος, romanized: Kháos) is the mythological void state preceding the creation of the universe (the cosmos) in ancient near eastern cosmology and early Greek cosmology. It can also refer to an early state of the cosmos constituted of nothing but undifferentiated and indistinguishable matter.
post relational chaos
Beyond relational aesthetics, beyond aesthetics itself, immersion into chaos that is an all-encompassing void capable of giving space to other narratives. Beyond the confines of institutions, eco-systems can evolve organically and independently to form relationships and communities that occupy the shades of grey between form. Liminal and transient, it is as much a space as it is a function, relying on the ability to morph as it needs. Post relational chaos moves beyond aesthetics to focus on care and nurturing, carving out space for conversations, exchanges and convergence to happen without borders.
