The Course

The Course explores the modern disconnect between mind and body, while blending the lines between fantasy and reality. Sustrans’ walking and cycling paths aim to inspire people to step out of their homes and engage with the real world, promoting both physical and mental wellbeing. The pavilion itself is open on two sides—one acting as an entrance, and the other framing a view of the surrounding landscape. Inside, participants can ride stationary bikes, connected to virtual courses that replicate the real paths nearby. As they immerse themselves in this virtual experience, they become part of the sculpture itself, transforming into a kinetic component that completes the artwork for those travelling the actual route outside.
