BRICKS AND SAND

Stories of Wedding/Gesundbrunnen, Berlin-Mitte.

ABOUT

How is a  place created by the architecture, history, past residents, and ecological community? Can I say I lived somewhere when my door unlocked with a piece of re-programmable plastic? How does learning the history of a place leave a mark on you? These are some of the questions I pondered while in residence in Wedding/Gesundbrunnen, Berlin-Mitte. Here you will find stories and a mind map from my field research while living on Osloer Straße in Berlin, Germany. 
While I have done my best to corroberate information and check facts, please note that these are works of creative writing based on informal sources.
Completed as part of a Directed Study while attending SFU Contemporary Art Field School Berlin, 2022.
