INSCRIBING THE CITY

Introduction

My project looks at exploring the constituents of everyday life that make up the city.

By looking at the bus stop as a form of architecture, I address the how bus stops are a dwelling place, home to actors and spectators of the city. And how they architecturally shape the experience of their occupants. In my work, I have catalogued moments and documented movements I observed when studying two bus stops on Oxford Road, Manchester. I aim to convey the city as an accumulation of simple and ordinary actions that create a collective experience of everyday life.
