Santa Sanctuaries

Christmas, even deprived of its Christian context, is an event of increased imagination, craft activities, interior- and exterior design decoration, baking, card making, star cutting…an endless yet seasonal transformation of public and private spheres. A major subject in art history since early Christian times, it is now mainly dominated and standardized by advertisement, commerce and prefabricated decoration.
For Santa Sanctuaries, PS² invited artists and an engineer, to work on the theme of a house, cave, tent, grotto or box for....well, Santa, Rudolph, the Fairies.
Once half finished, the construction site will be open to be finished by visitors, young and old.
