About this work

This page is a messy collage of photos and handwritten notes. Black-and-white snapshots show people walking, standing close to others, or moving in odd ways. Some photos are clipped and pasted over scribbled words. The text talks about rules for movement—like following someone or standing too close. One photo shows a person with their eyes covered, trying to sense another’s steps. The notes explain how movement can be controlled by others or by your own mind. The whole thing feels like a mix of instructions and experiments. Look up Vito Acconci next to see more of his work.
