Geopoetries

(site - text interventions in public space)

Concept

Geopoetries (5 metaphors and stories with longitude and latitude) is a series of site/text-based interventions initiating from public space but extending to short essays and performative narratives, which are influenced by such micro-morphologies of streets, asphalts, fissures, lichens and other mundane materialities of the everyday. The ongoing concept of Geopoetries reveals the wider interest of the artist to performative / technological links between bodies, words and geographical coordinates towards further geo/urban poetics (see also: Objects in Odysseys, -38.250714, - 157914178, Territorial Poetics)
