CAPTAS: an urban-mobile artistic intervention in Brazil
Abstract
The article focuses on the creative process of the urban-mobile intervention (2009- 2010) of the Brazilian artists Fabio FON and Soraya Braz. The artwork emerges from reflections on the social implications of mobile technology – mainly the dissolution of tacit agreements of coexistence in urban areas. It also displays a history of experimentations that re-signify the very concept of the artwork at different times.
