Silva+Sajovic: Beating the Bounds Walk Two

Friday, 15 April 2016, 2-3pm, led by artist Rebecca Davies.

Elephant & Castle doesn’t exist as a political ward, yet it exists in the imagination of people who live and work in the area. Artists Corinne Silva + Eva Sajovic invite students and members of the community to join them for a participatory walk, led by artist Rebecca Davies who will show us her personal boundaries of the Elephant & Castle.

Beating the Bounds is an ancient English custom in which a priest and members of the community, armed with willow boughs, would beat the parish boundary markers, lest they be forgotten.

Walks will be digitally traced using an app. The artists will then superimpose the resulting drawings to identify a collective boundary of the area and produce a multi-media map.

Beating the Bounds is part of London College of Communication's public programme.

The walk is part of TCCE programme of walks.
