A long, durational artistic experiment by bicycle.

With a collection of dancers, sound artists and a filmmaker, we lived Cycle Stories for 3 summer months in 2013 across England and France, travelling 3000km by bicycle via a series of artistic residencies. The journey was our studio in the making of Walking Stories – an intricately choreographed audio walk for parks. Cycle Stories , a film captured our unique journey and creative process as it unfolded. Cycle Stories was a process, a journey, a collection of maps and a series of exchanges.
