The work of Francis Als finds place in the interdisciplinary space of art, architecture, and social practice. In Pacing, the Belgian artist drew invisible figures through the public space of post-9/11 Manhattan as a form of imaginary architecture. Although the act itself has no goal, this mode of movement becomes a way in which Als conveys the acts physicality by defining specific tasks that also have certain historical resonances and cultural implications. To use ones steps as a measurement to establish a route between two points is a sentimental mapping of sorts, an intuitive act embodying our representation of the world in relation to sensorial experience.

Rústica. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: Nuevo. 01. En sus orígenes, las medidas tenían una referencia concreta o corporal: palabras como pulgada, pie, yarda, kilo hacían referencia a objetos o a partes del cuerpo que se utilizaban como norma para cuantificar la distancia o el peso. Utilizar nuestros propios pasos para establecer una ruta entre dos puntos es una especie de cartografía sentimental, un acto que nos recuerda a nuestra manera de representar el mundo en relación a una experiencia sensorial. En Pacing, el artista dibuja figuras invisibles en espacios públicos como si de una suerte de arquitectura imaginaria se tratase. Tras el 11 de septiembre su deambulación sin rumbo por las sombrías calles del centro de Manhattan le consoló un poco, ya que como había indicado en sus apuntes una década antes: ?Mientras esté caminando, no estaré pensando?.
