The series of performances in public space explored 5 ­dif­­­ferent areas in Kyiv. ­25 inhabitants of Kyiv engaged in choreographic and artistic acts and used their bodies to create alternative imaginaries in the urban space – as a network of bodies, as a concentrated constellation of bodies, as moving bodies reacting on the architecture or acoustics of a place, as a poetic alienation of daily functions. a practised playground for physical fantasies in the urban landscape.

A school of consciousness. A moving social sculpture that permanently shifted its contours.
