Three street performers from Vienna, Austria, strike an interesting pose in a garden, complete with a green hedge on top of them. Artist Willi Dorner has started a 'Bodies in Urban Spaces' project, in which groups of dancers, climbers and performers wearing brightly coloured clothes run through busy malls and high streets and suddenly cram themselves into doorways, alcoves and any gap they can find in public buildings. Dorner is causing a stir across Europe with his team by squeezing human bodies into nooks and crannies across the continent. During a tour of his home country Austria, England, France, Norway, Sweden, Finland, and the USA, Willi and his 'bodies' have drawn attention from local police who have stopped several performances through fear they were burglars or vandals.

Two performers make a colourful display as they cram themselves in the space between a tree trunk and a wall.
