SIDELINED, now at Rotterdam's Nieuwe Instituut, treats sport as a designed system rather than a given. Fontana's alternative team games—Multiform, Anonymous Allyship, and Fluid Field—unfix teams, uniforms, and fields, redirecting attention from victory toward negotiation and care. Each iteration adapts to its context, from Venice's Dutch Pavilion to Logroño's park.

The sports bar returns as a public rooftop space, complete with a fluid foosball table and a trophy cabinet celebrating collaboration over victory. Works by Luca Soudant and Alice Wong expand the conversation, while local initiatives such as Queer Gym Rotterdam show how sport already fosters belonging. SIDELINED asks what happens when designed systems open up to uncertainty and togetherness.
