Synopsis

"Walks to Bolderaja" are significant examples of "nature" actions. They took place from 1980 to 1987 in a small and varying group of people, always with the participation of H.Ledins and J.Boiko (the co-author and initiator of these actions is I.Zodziks). The participants describe the walks as a ritual that follow certain rules. The action has to be documented - no matter whether by painting or photography, video or audio; in the process of walk there has to be change from light to darkness or vice versa; it is carried out once a year in different months.
