In the focus of the group’s activity, public and urban spaces are regarded as open exhibition places containing many different media that can be used for artistic self-expression. Their works are best interpreted within the network of urban life, public spaces and omnipresent, governing signs, reflecting on the very issue of big city existence and uncovering “hidden” phenomena.
