While installation art is diverse, these five characteristics of installation art are often present:
-
Site-specificity – designed for a particular location.
-
Interactivity or immersion – invites viewers to engage with the space.
-
Use of mixed media – combines various materials and techniques.
-
Spatial awareness – integrates with architectural elements and layout.
-
Narrative or conceptual depth – tells a story or expresses an idea beyond aesthetics.
In my fit-outs, these characteristics are tailored to each project — whether it’s a restaurant, retail space, or residential interior.
