T.NUA is an experimental, artist-run and artist-funded initiative driven by the concept of social sculpture—an idea that blurs the boundaries between art, life, and participation, inviting the viewer to  experience the artwork in its different forms. T.NUA’s extensions include international collaborative projects, residencies, roundtables, exhibitions, and a magazine. It brings together an evolving network of artists, researchers, and partners engaged in international socio-cultural and environmental initiatives.

Through its two core programs—the T.NUA Collaboration Program, hybrid projects that merge socially engaged art practices with focused research in a variety of fields and the T.NUA Craftsmanship Program, bespoke artist residencies dedicated to preserving traditional craftsmanship through dialogue between contemporary artists and ancient craft knowledge, T.NUA explores the evolving role of the artist, their work, and the broader art infrastructure in relation to the global landscape.
