Return of the urban astronaut: Spaceman looms above city streets

An Urban Astronaut in Glasgow’s Merchant City is suspended up to 20ft in the air, walking as if without gravity, spinning and turning, using a flying machine attached by harness at the hips to give an aerial performance without strings. The astronaut is a traveller from a future version of Earth, which has been destroyed and made inhospitable through our lack of respect for air pollution.
