2) Artists’ comments

On the last day of Transitstation I spoke to some of the artists that took part and asked them to say a few words about the event.

At a transitstation event, the viewer enters a world in an art context, where the work exists at the intersection of artist and audience, performance and space. The journey is expressed by a scaffolding structure, designed to serve as an armature – or foil – for performers, audience, and ideas. As transitstation travels from country to country, the context changes, the station with the artists are in transit, but the scaffolding as a static system will always be there at the center.
