Course description: Short synopsis
„Artist walk : Art walk“ is half virtual + half hands on (or more precisely leg-work oriented) adventure where participants can wander along paths using different techniques and mindsets.

First we talk, then we walk and each of us will be exploring how well known the physical and mental areas really are.

One enthusiastic reason to dive into this topic is to find out more about the art of walking / walking as an art form that has its own history and practicioners. What kind of practice could be squeezed out from this everyday habit? During the workshop one generates instructions/scripts out of what she/he experienced and how others can follow the same synergy in a totally different environment. 

10 000 steps per day keeps one healthy!
Also, walking increases mindfulness (?)

Come and join the workshop of art walking procedures and notice the performativity where it usually does not stand out.

* Workshop organisers Maarin Ektermann and Henri Hütt have been collaborating with the aim of shifting the borders of cultural rituals. The exploration of artist walk / art walk is their newest and ongoing one.
