AIR Workshop
Between Night and Day Sensual Walk through parts of Chinatown, KL
Workshop by Susanne Bosch
A place is layered with memories, information, knowledge, systems and structures.
As a guest or researcher, one can explore a place in a number of different ways. This walk will be an invitation to explore Chinatown with our senses rather than with information for our brain:
We will witness the moment between night and day, between darkness and dusk.
We will use our senses, which means taste (through a variety of breakfasts), smell, sight, sound, movement, touch, … to get an individual, sensual understanding of the texture of space. We will do this exploration partly in silence, but never alone. It also means to have the permission to endure in places that one might usually never dare to do. At the end, we will exchange our joint learning of this particular space in time.
