Atmospheres (Body as Sensors)
Malú Cayetano Molina and Sonia Pérez
October 10 and 11, 2020


Is there any difference between the body and its surroundings? Or do they form an undivisible unity? As part of the exhibition Mind Your Step Malú Cayetano Molina and Sonia Pérez explore the spatial atmospheres of Amstelpark and its surroundings, using the body as an instrument to sense the environment and trigger a different experience of the park. The artists designed a set of exercises rooted in Body Weather, fostering the feeling of being together with other beings and things in a shared space. These experiences will be silently registered with the help of a portable device.
The device will have various sensors that can record myriads of parameters. These will be spatially linked to the park and added to a responsive map on view in het Glazen Huis. This cartography will be shown as an ongoing visualization of possible atmospheres in Amstelpark; it will evolve thanks to the active participation of the audience in the walks.
