Runner is a collaborative project between Amy Feneck and Laura Mansfield. We have a shared interest in alternative explorations of public space. We wish to create a network of like minded individuals, sharing new experiences of the city, playing with its infrastructure. Mapping, narrating, creating, and continuingly layering a personal history of a site.
We chose an action – to run
We took all associations the action holds
Leisure, fear, protest, fitness, freedom
To explore new space
To create a new narrative
To challenge and change our everyday.
And we are asking you to run, to draw your own line through your own city. To create a new history within the space, and tell us your experience seen with the action, passing in motion in a state of physical exhaustion.
AN INVITATION TO RUN
1. Take the action to run
2. Take your knowledge of the city
3. Combine the two; run in the city.
At any pace, at any time, and in any way.
4. Document and collect data of the run in order to complete the assignment.
(eg, photographs, text, maps.)
5. Send your data to runner.run01@gmail.com. Your collected data will become part of the ongoing research of the RUNNER project
AND GO
go with your assumptions of a space
go with the infrastructure of the city
go with a bridge in between
go with a short cut or pathway
go with the time that you wake
go with your physical strength
go with a need to feel free
go with a view of the horizon
go with an open space
go somewhere new
go with a story to tell
go with your thoughts of tomorrow
go with your yesterday
go with your longing
go with your fears
go with someone else
and run from there.
