The Plot — The MAAK

Worldwide calls for increased social distancing have not decreased our social-ness (nor our ability to be public). What is changing however, is the means through which we are engaging with each other, and where we are able to do that from. As we become more apt and reliant on gathering online, is the internet becoming our most relevant, and important, public space today?

The PLOT is a virtual gallery space that is exploring this topic whilst questioning the untapped spatial potential of the internet and the materiality of online. It is an open platform to discuss, question and contribute to the shifting narratives of spatial practice today. In collaboration with @ssoft_stuff
