About

Silence Was Golden is an on-going global art project centered around words or short phrases made out of golden letter shaped balloons, chosen by performers to express themselves.

The project invites people everywhere to use art in their daily lives. Public Delivery then shows this project in art institutions internationally to bridge the gap between institutions and people.

The project is open and free to participation, aiming to complete performances in every country of the world.

The project

This site-specific and participatory project gives individuals and communities the opportunity to express themselves on multiple platforms and collaborate with others who may or may not have a professional art background. This project is open to everyone and therefore works to help people appreciate and engage in visual art. The ultimate goal of the project is to have an open, free, global participatory collection of works while inspiring people of all backgrounds to communicate through art as well as connect people from all backgrounds.

Balloons are re-used and recycled.
