SEE EVENT DETAILS
Take part in the Community Walking Laboratory and think about the questions: Where do YOU feel at home? What do YOU need to feel at home?
The Community Walking Laboratory led by Astrid Kämmerling invites the re:home community to sign up for a limited numer of 30 minute one-on-one walks during which participant and artist will explore the neighborhood surrounding Minnesota Street Project while engaging in a conversation about the meaing of home. The guiding two question being: Where do YOU feel at home? What do YOU need to feel at home? All walks start and end at Gallery 200 at Minnesota Street Project. The stories generated throughout individual walks are being collected to shed light on human processes of homebuilding.
Astrid Kaemmerling’s Community Walking Laboratory (CWL) originated in San Francisco during 100 Days Action in 2016. Since then the CWL has been enacted at a residency at the Vermont Studio Center and Enos Park in Springfield, IL. CWS’s invite participants to analyze the place they reside in while connecting to the local environment through the practice of walking. Personal stories and narratives of the area are being shared in a dialogue between artist and participant momentarily meandering through space, together. CML is an art project deeply embedded in relational aesthetics and sets out to create a momentary creative and meaningful union of two bodies moving alongside one another with the intention to activate body and mind.
Participants are asked to be on time, wear walking shoes, sun protection & to bring some water as well as a snack if needed.
