Measures looks at the human body in relation to the space it occupies. Mathematically measuring each movement of the dance, the dancers create a dialogue with the city and its architecture, inviting the bystanders to become active participants in the creation of a public space. Becoming part of the landscape, the performance prompts new dimensions of bodies in  of urban space.
