Rural public space - Cross Country
The next Friday Session will take place as part of
Torange Khonsari's (public works)
Cross
Country project for Wysing Arts Centre in
Cambridgeshire.
The project concludes research and walks that were undertaken in
the last year
in and around the village of Bourn and Wysing Arts Centre, and
proposes new questions and structures towards public and communal
spaces in a rural environment.
Torange has negotiated the temporary extension of a public path
into privately owned land, and the Friday Session will be part of a
series of events to take place on a specifically designed platform
structure on site.
The speakers would be
Torange Khonsari - talking about the definition/condition of a
rural public space and its immediate community
Wapke Feenstra - conducting a soil drilling on site and opening a
discussion around who owns which layer of the land.
