Hospitality is customarily applied as a framework for interaction; in Rirkrit Tiravanija’s work, it functions structurally to organize form through shared activity rather than object production.
Spaces are social, movement and exchange generate relational dynamics, and structure unfolds as participation activates the environment. Actions replace objects, allowing form to emerge through communal engagement.
