The exhibition
The exhibition displays 11 drawings that present an alternative future patterning of space.
Inspired by science fiction, the drawings establish hypotheses and strategies that promote a new paradigm for urban living in regions facing climate change of different degrees of severity.
Although the drawings in the exhibition begin life in the computer as digital lines, they have since been printed, collaged to fuse with spatial narrative, hand-traced to capture all of human’s creative nuance, scanned and digitally re-traced, and finally finessed with layers of textures and tones.
