We see urban markets as vibrant places where diverse cultures gather, becoming hubs for social interaction, community building, and cultural exchange. The street market is often based on small family or cooperative stalls and the forming of social solidarity between the stall owners. Part of the de Appel Kiosk’s endeavor is to reflect on practices of exchange and barter in market economies.
