Some of the signs of Petersburg’s spring served us as the main inspiration source: the stored waste which got suddenly revealed through melted snow; the lost look of a bit swollen pigeons; frozen down rats drifted in canals; and some other creatures of the city’s urban landscapes.
As in any journey we were mostly interested in the process of moving through the space, forms and states; and also in the perception’ metamorphoses of the journey’s participants featuring audience as one of the travelers.
