Bodies in Urban Spaces is a temporarily intervention in diversified urban architectonical environment. The intention of Bodies in Urban Spaces is to point out the urban functional structure and to uncover the restricted movement possibilities and behaviour as well as rules and limitations.

It is a moving trail, choreographed for a group of dancers. The performers lead the audience through selected parts of public and semi-public spaces.

The special quality of each place at various times of the day creates unique presentations.Bodies in Urban Spaces invites the residents to walk their own city thus establishing a stronger relationship to their neighbourhood, district and town. The interventions are temporarily without leaving any traces behind, but imprints in the eye-witnesses` memory.
