Description

"About walking is a series of performative and participatory walks that travel across Auckland with Te Hau ā Uru - the West Wind. The walks are artworks - guided experiences leading audiences and participants across Auckland - created by twelve artists and one writer: Rodney Bell, Suzanne Cowan, Vanessa Crofskey, Christina Houghton, Melissa Laing, Jeremy Leatinu'u, Lana Lopesi, Andrew McMillan, Richard Orjis, val smith, Pīta Turei, Layne Waerea and Becca Wood. About walking maps cartographies outside the everyday routes of transport. Its walks-as-artworks follow stories, pathways of the imagination and the senses, awa (rivers) and maunga (volcanic hills), uncovering the hidden trajectories of our urban and bush terrain."--Te Uru Waitākere Contemporary Gallery website (accessed 24/02/2021).
