Manufactured Displacement
Hatton Gallery, Newcastle upon Tyne, 2021
This piece of work was shown in the Hatton Gallery, Newcastle in 2012 for Julia's MFA Degree Show. Very much conceptualised around research completed into infomal urban geographies in Albania, the work's standardised, modular forms chronicle unfinished urban blueprints, half built housing and informal settlements; the many diverse ways that we build and live in our communities. The viewer was able to enter into this architectural space, experiencing it first hand whilst the seating area at the rear of the structure acted as a social space within the gallery.
