Note:

Score orinally made for the Sculpture Trail at Stephens House and Gardens, 17 East End Road, N3 3QE London, United Kingdom.

The video was made at the Orange Gardens in Rome Italy as a compliment to the instructions. The set up in the orange gardes across the street where the artists had their accomodation (Circolo Scandinavio), have a number of stone podiums providing for the artists not to do the score infront of sculptures but rather becoming sculptures and doing the gestures of the score.

Sculpture You is an act of becoming, an ongoing process of altering your senses and to reflect upon the attention, respect and care you invest while walking the sculpture trail. During the first act you transform into a temporary sculpture. During the second act you perform a ritual in front of each sculpture on the trail. For each of the acts, read through instructions prior to doing the movements.
