Svetlana Mircheva worked starting with the movement of people in Venice, the crowds that fluctuate, and the natural drifting apart derived from the compulsory need to walk. Giving priority to space, time and movement, she has written a simple diary of the city, presenting the heart of Venice, St. Mark's Square, and the mutation of the site throughout during a day. The artwork will be presented in the form of a video projection. In addition, she has made a series of portraits of the Radar participants as small icons, pixelating the images in such a way as to render them unrecognisable. These icons will also be presented in an interactive manner, mutating one into the other.
