Metapolis

2020

What kind of a view opens up to a person in places that are not meant to be a stopping point? What possible attitudes can be taken towards urban space? What kind of a world reveals to us once we become more receptive to the phenomenons that remain beyond the periphery of our attention?

Metapolis is an authorial project on the border of a walk and a staged guide, which aims to provide the audience with a unique insight into the urban everyday and the uniqueness of the moment. Five guides, four stations, four points of view on the territory of Florence in Prague.

An environment that is by its very nature on the border of order and vagueness. However, if we take our time and listen carefully to the sounds of the local rails, cracks and exhalations, we open ourselves up to a completely new experience.

Join our anonymous guides and let them alongside the city guide you as a trusted companion. Embark on a journey that means abandoning strictly logical rules, towards a purposelessness of movement and discovery.
