This is a spectacular event in the form of a performance, installation or incursion that, in an unusual way, animates a main street, road and city in one of its most bustling moments: the promenade. It animates the “shopping trip” with a brief theatrical experience, but without interfering with the activities of the shop owners.
The idea is to involve a mixed audience that has come to the event or gets involved in it by chance.
Other presences move about under shop signs, amidst handbags, jewellery, clothes, shoes and accessories. They are eccentric, exaggerated, whimsical and sometimes irresistibly humorous presences, but they can also be silent and, through simple rituals, they convey the images of an elsewhere through a window that becomes a spatiotemporal passage of vision.
