My aim was to create a desirable object, with which people would like to interact, so that it brings strangers together and creates a shared intimate moment that changes our perspectives. For this I was inspired by Adam Chodzko‘s work „Ghost“, a canoe in which people could lie down and see the sky. I thought that a bed with wheels, where you can lie down and you will be carried through Palma could be similarly interesting. From the bed position you perceive your whole surrounding differently, but you are also perceived differently by people passing by. So the performance is on the one side a kind gesture that invites people to interact and take a rest in the achievement-oriented society. On the other hand, the performance has also something uncomfortable in that it exposes you to foreign looks, and you are made vulnerable by lying down in a bed, a symbol of intimacy in the middle of public space.
Furthermore, the square shape and size of a bed is quite similar to the one of a car and at the same time it could not be more different to a car by missing the protective shells and clearly not belonging on the street.
