Traces we inhabit, fragments that hold us

Welcome to Traces we inhabit, fragments that hold us. This sensory walk is a process, an invitation to be open to uncertainty and perhaps contradiction, explore the irrational, and engage with a whimsical wish towards thinking with matter and not over matter. 

Guided by artist Francesca Bogani Amadori, the walk will take place along Hernesaari’s waterfront. Granite will be our companion as we trace the history of the soil that holds us. We’ll attune our attention to the multiple layers of time and space, and embark on a sonic and speculative journey to explore the shifting edges of this urban area.

Let’s connect with the fragments and layers that hold us dynamic, continuous, living, and lived. What possible worlds exist when we attune to the landscape?
