AUTHORS: Townley & Bradby

Picture


Townley and Bradby make interventions, performance walks and artists' books. Their practice explores the routines and rituals of urban public spaces. By combining place, action and props, they feel for the bounds of what is permissible or for the level at which an intervention ceases to be invisible and rises into the public view. Their work is usually located in the public realm, and has included an improvised game of tennis on urban wasteland (Abide, 2006), a public poll (Plant Popularity Poll, 2006), a performance walk linking the morgue with the crematorium (Dust, 2006), a trail of altered books in a library (Shelf Life, 2003) and a study of pedestrian navigation and cognitive maps in Norwich market (Provision, 2004). By situating their work back in the spaces which informed and provoked it, Townley and Bradby are making it available for chance discovery and comment.
