Tying our wrists to each other we experience

 the entanglements of our bodies with other bodies,

Eating, drinking and breathing 

human and vegetables mingle

​

*Urbanity and New Manners was a compilation of group practices and urban interventions offering alternative ways of handling everyday life. Inspired by El Manual de Urbanidad y Buenas Maneras

(The Manual of Urbanity and Good Manners) written by Venezuelan pedagogue Manuel Antonio Carreño in 1853 setting the codes of social behavior and interaction in the Latin America of the time, this project invited art and non-art audiences to have proximity experiences through body practices.
