hostile how??? (2023-2024)

Varied

Assembling audiovisual media and a series of zines, Tina addresses the nuances of hostile design present in urban architecture. She seeks to question the limits this hostility may push in their increasing prevalence with this year-long investigation, something she highlights in a satirical stopmotion. At the same time, she documents personal experiences with these architectural features in small, intimate zines. This interdisciplinary installation aims to depict the dynamic atmosphere of discord and disconnection manifesting in our urban environments.

​

Through the juxtaposition, Tina hopes to raise awareness and appeal to empathy. She encourages curiosity and inquisitiveness about modern design decisions -- in particular, their functionality and accessibility in our everyday communal spaces.
