Spending Melbourne’s COVID-19 isolation at home on Arthur St, ears filled with the recent discovery of the music of Arthur Russell, Flora Carbo found inspiration in recording music and walking.
Arthur’s Walks is an exploration in groove, melody, tension and release performed as these five walks:
1. LITTLE JOG
a gentle exercise,
getting the heart rate up
2. AMBLE
early in the morning,
sleepily following a path or waterway
3. WANDER
a walk in the rain, noticing the senses
4. HIKE
opening with a view,
adventurously exploring somewhere new
5. DAILY STROLL
finding inward inspiration on a routine route,
noticing the body and inviting inspired movement
