'bodies in urban spaces' by willi dorner and lisa rastl
from the series ‘bodies in urban spaces’
art director willi dorner and photographer lisa rastl have collaborated on two project combining
humans in odd formations and unusual locations. ‘hängende gärten’ and ‘bodies in urban spaces’
both set out to explore the “relationship between body, space and architecture”. the urban based
series was created as a set of human sculptures which were spread throughout the city of vienna.
the artist has effectively transformed the human body into form, a complete reversal from the
classical convention of creating the human form from a material.

is it deliberate that none of the faces of the people are clearly visible?
regardless of this, it is an awesome and fascinating series of photographs.
also is the art the photos of the people or r the people in fact an installation?

One usually sees piles of bodies like this... in mass deaths, either due to disease or violence. My main visual association is pictures of genocide or plague burials. While there is a light-hearted feeling about these young people being piled up, like a college prank (how many people can you fit in a volkswagen?) there is a dark shadow, too. There is, I agree, a strange effect of seeing the body as mere material in the environment. A loss of subjectivity. Death is not far from these images... very unlike dance, where people may pile up, but the piling is self-willed and is part of a constantly changing and evolving movement.

I could never take part in such a work. I would be worried about getting aroused if some girl was pressed against my nether regions.
