municipal dream
A body of work that asks how housing can be reclaimed as a right and how the municipal dream might be reshaped for the future. The municipal dream was built on the idea that housing should provide dignity, stability and a shared foundation for community life. Today that vision has been undermined, replaced by a market-driven logic that treats homes as commodities rather than as places to live. Yet in the cracks of the city there are still glimpses of a different future, in community-led housing, co-operatives and small acts of resilience that resist displacement. My practice responds to these conditions by walking, observing and photographing the changing landscape of South East London. the work looks forward, imagining a gentrified future rebuilt on fairness, sustainability and collective possibility.
