Walking on Water

A short documentary created at Venice Design Biennial 2021

A short documentary about the making of Walking on Water -a live performance for the Venice Design Biennial 2021 which took place on the roof top of T Fondaco overlooking the Rialto Bridge.

The project create and concieved by Jo Cope, looks at the history of the popular class of women from the 16th century as well as the Venitian women of today. The project celebrates and pays homage to the history and making of the Furlane slipper with project partners Peidaterre - the oldest slipper makers in Venice.

With thanks to VDB curators Francesca Giubilei and Luca Berta who invited me to take part and to the performers, venue and film makers at kinonautstudio.
