The City Is Ours moves its scientific-but-ironical to the next detail on the streetscape: the manhole cover. Have you ever wondered about the secrets and stories these everyday artefacts might hold?
The 6th issue of The City Is Ours focuses on ‘Involuntary Sculptures’ inspired by the works of Marcel Duchamp and Akasegawa Genpei. This final edition delves into objects and structures found in cities, not designed as art, but emerging from everyday interactions and unintentional arrangements. By recognising and appreciating these overlooked elements, we can shift our perception, uncovering unexpected beauty and meaning in even the most familiar urban landscapes.
