Walk-shop

Walking is Also Space, Korpoström in Finland April 2023

A walk-shop with walkers and observers. The workshop accentuates relational strategies of creating and sharing space. Methodologies in artistic practices are unfolded in order to raise awareness on disregarded or unfamiliar spaces. The workshop emerges from choreographer Molissa Fenley’s postmodern ideas about space, and about movement memories that are buried in our bodies. It is an elaboration of space reflecting the mix of geographical environments that constitutes spatial memory. We also lean towards sociologist Doreen Massey’s important claim that spaces are never static; they transform as we move with and through them. Thus, walking is also space.
