COllective string web play Hanging & hammocks

You are invited to... string your way with 40.000 meters of colorful string & elastics tracking string across the marked area in series of collective web marking of public space. When you pull the strings in new directions, the structure gradually changes, and you create new space, functions and movements and new possibilities arise.
You are also invited to... tie objects to the string web, and make it grow...
Enjoy!

The aim is to give citizens the opportunity to communicate and collectively generate a positive atmosphere through a shared playful, creative experience in public city space.

It is a Laboratory exploring COLLECTIVE CREATIVITY in PUBLIC SPACE set up by CPH/Berlin/Brazil-based visual artist Karoline H. Larsen and Seattle/NYC-based performer and artist Jasmine Zimmerman.

It is also a spontaneous collaboration with CRASH TEST by scenographer and dancer Sara Gebran and artist and filmmaker Joacim Hamou, and URBANARTSCAPE by Jan Hatt-Olsen and Asta Olga Magnusdottir, and visual artist Mille Rude as part of Metropolis Laboratory 2007, Kopenhagen International Theater.

What would it be like living in cities inhabited by people doing creative actions in public space? Would it change the way people act? Would it impact peoples' view on one another - would it change yours? By involving people in a colorful string muster, this workshop explores how new functions of body-expression, creativity, collectivity, weaving of social layers and movements evolve in public space. The documentation shows the process of collective creativity in public space, all the different stages of public involvement from beginning 1st day till take down 6th day
