Selection of initial experiential drawings
How can the role of architectural process encourage stronger ties between the subject and their environments?
In light of reports suggesting that cities are having a negative impact on the well-being of their inhabitants, this thesis project interrogates our relationships with the spaces around us. Here, surrealist methods of automatic and experiential drawing become a language that reveal our existing experiences as we move through urban space – communicating both the conscious and unconscious conditions and relationships between the subject and the city.
