Shelters explored the potential for improvised architectures to inhabit urban space, and re-animate a human-scale vision of urban occupation. Made in response to the glass and steel towers which enclosed the redevelopment of Melbourne's port, three living-structures were produced, entirely from materials salvaged from local demolitions and redevelopments.
Salvaged building waste, timber, steel, rope, paint, perspex, glass, tape, fabric, plants, trailer, raft, found objects. Dimensions variable.
