Making
Making refers to the act of exploring a site or issue by engaging with materiality and space. The act of making (a building, an art installation, an object) is always grounded in both the physical and social resources of a context and is a way of exploring how that context can be modified. In critical urban practice, making can become a tool both to examine a situation and to trigger future action for change, starting from the concrete transformation of objects and spaces that define it.
