City Scribe: Leeds 1 & 2

By  Sarah Spanton 2012

Leeds 1: a durational performance first developed and sited behind Leeds Town Hall, on Great George Street. The City Scribe is fleetingly seen by passers by, apparently scaling the building, playfully observing the city's architecture, atmosphere and its flows of people through movement and text (seen as part of Ludus Festival). Leeds 2: developing City Scribe further by traversing Leeds city centre on foot.
