Invasion of public space

It´s not only the new public spaces that I´am seeking for in my project. It´s about finding new way of showing the existing qualities. The pictures show projects done by Dutch artist, Hens Hofstra. His work is done in existing public space. The blue painted road features the phrase "Water is Life" written in eight-meter-high letters across it. The Blue Road is reminiscent of the waterway that used to be where the road is now. It's a memorial to nature, but it's also just plain awe-inspiring.

STREET FOR ALL

The street called Vilsonovo setaliste is popular walking and recreation space in the city of Sarajevo. The street is open for cars durin the week until 17 p.m. But from Friday 17. p.m. to Monday morning is car free zone and it´s open for public. Street follows the river Miljacka which is running through town. A great way to use the city-space. I rented a bike and went on the excursion!

First Models

Capturing some of my first thoughts, each model

(at the time) is functioning practice of its own.

What is liminal?

Liminality in places

These can range from borders, to no man's lands and disputed territories, to crossroads to perhaps airports or hotels, which people pass through but do not live in. In mythology and religion or esoteric lore this can include such realms as Purgatory or Da'at which as well as signifying liminality some theologians have denied actually existing, making them, in some cases, doubly liminal. "Between-ness" defines these spaces. For a hotel worker (an insider) or a person passing by with disinterest (a total outsider), the hotel would have a very different connotation. To a traveller staying there, the hotel would function as a liminal zone (wikipedia).
