Founded in 1998, pvi are an independent arts collective with backgrounds in performance, visual art, new media, psychology and live art. Each contribute their skills towards creating artworks for performance venues, galleries and public spaces. Works are generated from a group process of site-specific research and experimentation. Artworks question various forms of social control that we live under in an increasingly anxious cultural climate. As a result, the company have produced an eclectic body of work ranging from performances, bus tours, radio broadcasts, privacy services, video and sculptural installations. pvi often engage the public within their artworks - offering up darkly humorous survival tactics for living in the 21st century and activating viewers through eccentric acts of intervention, on the streets, on-screen and in any other spaces they can get away with.
