a walking event
A walk about sensing, dreaming and belonging from mountain Ymittos, the eastern borderline of the city. We return to (or perhaps arrive at) the house of Isadora and Raymond Duncan we embody their ‘in between’, seen and unseen connections, and we reflect (or is it dreaming) on people, places and stories that relate the Duncan House to the mountain and the city.

Part of the ‘JUST FOR TODAY’ Gestures that bring us close to the things the world is made of
a three-day event drawing from Raymond Duncan’s legacy, routes and traces, that attempts to cultivate new ecologies as a framework and support for contemporary creation through a series of modular ‘micro-actions’.
It explores how our practices relate to our daily life questioning notions of learning and ways of seeing, hearing, and imagining in a shared manner.
