A choreography in a bird´s eye view
- 20 self-glowing objects placed in the city
StillAlive
-Man as the Place
is a project where 20 selfglowing objects are placed outside in
different places
in the architecture of the city. The object are placed both where they easily can be seen and in more hidden places.
In the night they glow.
The outplacement ritual and the objects journey in the city becomes a choreography in a bird's perspective.
The places where the objects will be placed are coordinates for a time.
Will the objects dissolve, dematerialize or be taken care of by passers-by?
The projects meets its audience in the public space.
In the same time it differs from traditional public art as it will only be present temporarily
and who ever finds them can pick them up and become owners of the
object.
If you find one of the objects you
can detect an ingraved link and then go to the website of the project
for more information about the project, how it continues and find instructions how to become a godfather.
