‘It’s Not Where I Am That Stays With Me’

A project by Combination City (UK/NL/EU)

This project runs throughout the festial, and a guided tour takes place on
Saturday, November 14th, 1.10 pm
A series of posters are strategically placed in locations throughout both
Cork City and Amsterdam. As part of the Derivés, participants are invited
to follow a selected route through the city that takes the audience on a
journey around a familiar physical landscape whilst describing another,
half-imagined, but purportedly real, place. Combination City are a group of
European artists and urban architects. With thanks to Maile Yamanaka.
