The face of cities is constantly evolving. The geometries of public spaces change, and with them the ways in which we inhabit them. Their inhabitants change, and forms of interaction multiply. Places change rapidly; people change; the ways we move and relate to one another change. The ways we inhabit and experience space change.

What perception does each of us have of our own body and of the body of the other in space? How does a space influence an individual’s way of being within it, and how can we improve the ways in which we inhabit, experience and live in a place? How can an urban space become sustainable and accessible?

A movement workshop was offered to a group of 60 young people aged 15 to 28, inviting them to reinvent the gestures we need and to develop a new grammar of the “body in relation”, in which the concept of citizenship has both meaning and the possibility to be expressed. A study of photographs taken by the young participants in urban spaces stimulated and enriched the research.

The project culminated in a public artistic event in the form of a flash mob, held in Piazza San Carlo in Turin. INTOFRAME rethinks the contemporary city through the places and people that inhabit it, with the aim of enhancing quality of life from a smart-city perspective, founded on accessibility and sustainability.
