Abstract:

In my PhD I reveal how I founded Alive Architecture. I address the question of how observing and drawing people appropriating the public realm informed my practice. I reveal how it was triggered through drawing Lived Space, how it evolved through observing and re-producing Lived Space and how it was furthered through co-producing Lived Space together with other people. In the final project Alive Architecture became a practice that is initiating Lived Space through curating other people to produce the public realm that allowed expanding an ephemeral event to a durational project.
