DVD made as part of the Under plattan, ängen! (under the square, fields!) project at Konsthall C and Lava in Stockholm. Curated by Finbar Rosato Krook.
A video work which documents a climb made on a granite wall along Högalidsgatan a street, Södermalm, Stockholm.
The sound of passing cars, bikes and pedestrians give an ambient soundtrack to the video.
The work was produced by attaching two video cameras to a special bracket fitted to a backpack and so filming left and right along the wall as the person climbs along the urban walls. Its sister piece also made for this project is Skogskyrkogården.
