‘Social Dive’ is an artist residency programme run as part of Tokyo Biennale 2020. Artists will have the opportunity to stay and create at the heart of Tokyo, and to present their resulting work as part of the Biennale. Social Dive invites artists to dive into the different areas of Tokyo as part of an art project aimed at discovering both the unique traditions and new values held by the people who live there. The project calls for artists whose practice deals with socially engaged art through a wide spectrum of ideas and methods of expression or action – whether that be fine art, design, performance, media art, film, architecture, academic research, social action, or activities related to economics. All fields are welcome.

Capability to directly face the “Social Dive” theme, and connect deeply with the city of Tokyo itself, its diverse communities, or the intangible cultural values of Japan.

– All forms of expression are accepted. Any field is welcome as long as the project deals with social engagement through a wide spectrum of ideas and methods of expression or action. This includes those such as fine art, design, performance, media art, film, architecture, academic research, social action, and economic-related.
