Mischa Kuball's Art Style

Since 1977, Kuball has been active in both public and institutional spheres. He utilizes light as a medium to explore architectural spaces and engage with social and political discourses. His work reflects a range of aspects, from sociocultural structures to architectural interventions, often highlighting or reinterpreting their monumental nature and historical context.

In his politically motivated participatory projects, public and private spaces blend seamlessly, creating a platform for communication among the audience, the artist, the artwork, and the public space.
