Intervention without Permission, which focused on the subversion of the art institution by means of site-specific performance-based interventions. These are based on the surreptitious installation of a series of handmade embossed boxes, placed directly onto existing artworks displayed within galleries in order to shift the emphasis towards audience participation, enabling a discourse between spectators and gallery assistants. Each series of boxes are site-specific to the institution targeted and contain a message, asking the spectator to email a response.
