Jos' performance installations are highly curated, site-sensitive, immersive environments characterized by what artist Thomas Bellinck has described as "productive pessimism": the act of passing through dystopias so as to, eventually, contemplate new utopias in response. 

​

Jos believes in the unique power of art that demands participation. Their work is dedicated to centering and engaging the potential of the audience by involving them in the action directly. Jos' performance installations explore notions of accountability, self-determination and vulnerability in immersive formats.
