Manifesta purposely strives to keep its distance from what are often seen as the dominant centres of artistic production, instead seeking fresh and fertile terrain for the mapping of a new cultural topography.

Palermo Procession by Italian artist Marinella Senatore was developed in a workshop process open to all, which focused on the principles of non-hierarchical learning, self-training and the creation of an active citizenship. The procession involved over 300 non-professional performers who danced through the streets and lanes of the old city centre.
