Pilot #3

Fisksätra Vibes

#fisksatravibes

Fisksätra Vibes was a collaborative project between Film Capital Stockholm, Nacka municipality and Stena Fastigheter focusing on art works in a residential environment. The project required creators to create public artworks in a pedestrian tunnel, on a footbridge and on a square with a fountain. Other products included a sketch for refurbishing a building façade, a performance and an audiowalk.

Who gets to decide what a residential area should look like? How do you engender trust and open a dialogue with residents when designing living environments? Fisksätra Vibes investigated whether residents could be more closely involved in issues of their own living environment than is presently the case. Smart Kreativ Stad entered the project with the aim to investigate the involvement of the residents, and to make space for film creators at work on design assignments in residential environments.

Locations

  • Fountain on the square
  • Tunnel and footbridge in Fisksätra center

Professional artists and creators from the film industry were commissioned to create public artworks in Fisksätra center. The proposals were drawn up in dialogue with the local residents during preparation and execution. The approach was inclusive, by way of adapting the process to local needs and wishes.

Audience

The pilot study targeted the residents of Fisksätra, as well as visitors and commuters passing by.

Creators

  •  Artists
  • Set designers/Lighting designers
  • Architects
  • Consultants in audio technology

Partners

  • Nacka Municipality
  • Stena Fastigheter

The pilot study resulted in public artworks in Fisksätra Center. Furthermore, knowledge was advanced as a result of the involvement of people and organizations in the housing area. It also became evident that structures affecting artistic designs in the public space are absent for film. Finally, the pilot study demonstrated the importance of having a project manager as a go-between for creators and real estate companies.
