With a background in art history and heritage studies Christiane Bosman has over 15 years of experience developing cultural interventions in the public realm. Since she joined the Embassy of the North Sea in 2019, her practice has focused on human–non-human relations, exploring how art can deepen ecological awareness and reshape our connection with the living world.
At the Embassy of the North Sea collective, she combines day-to-day coordination with leading the Confluence of European Water Bodies—a transdisciplinary solidarity network of more than 35 grass roots initiatives aimed to learn and exchange about the cultural, legal, and political representation of aquatic ecosystems across Europe.
As an independent curator, programmer, and producer (at ao TAAK cooperative and Ministry for the Future) she previously initiated and led numerous public art interventions addressing gentrification, ecology, democracy and future thinking. In these projects, art functions as a catalyst for critical reflection and dialogue, while creating spaces for encounter and connection.
She previously worked as a communications advisor for leading cultural institutions (Het Nieuwe Instituut, La Biennale di Venezia, Triennale die Milano) and publishers (Phaidon Press, Walburg Pers).
