A Common Third
In A Common Third, Simon Pope explores walking as a collaborative, intellectual, and social process. Inviting guests to navigate unfamiliar terrains together, Pope investigates how shared decisions, landscapes, and cultural practices shape both the journey and the experience of being together.

In this video-performance, I ran through the Patagonian desert landscape with my eyes closed, attempting to draw a circle with the path I followed.
The image on the left shows the perspective captured by a camera fixed to my body as I moved along the circle, while the image on the right shows the view from a camera mounted on a panopticon structure positioned at the summit of one of the mountains, offering an overarching view of the terrain.
This performance was realized during the Barda del Desierto residency.
