  • The Slowly Project The Slowly Project is a work-in-progress, taking place in various cities around the world. The performance consists of moving in ‘slow motion’ in daily life, walking so slowly that the performer becomes a shock to those in the city. The project and the videos are works about society and our lives but also a reminder to take our time, in life and in art, beyond formalities, stereotypes, and social ways.
