Résumé:

Dwelling for Intervals is a decade long, morphing International Artist Residency program, based on (and in) a forest of young trees. It is an independent state, a sculpture, a series of collaborations, a wilderness, a treehouse, a travelling circus and a relative site for temporary doing and undoing. This book uses remnants from the "official box-under-the-bed" and functions as a sort of inner city map, for trans-nationals who find/lose themselves dwelling for intervals.
