This limited edition was produced on the occasion of The Pedestrians, a proejct by Charles Atlas and Mika Tajima at the SLG in 2011.
The Pedestrians examined the act of walking in its various social and political forms: from the march formations in processions and demonstrations, and the idle strolling flâneur, to the choreography of everyday movement in dance.
