SECTION 6—Urban Fabric
A small, black hand shaped knocker on a cracked red door.

Heurtoirs d’Aix-en-Provence, France

There is a man sitting in a chair on a brick sidewalk. He is covering his face with his hand.

Plaza

Sunlight shines into the deserted floor of a dilapidated building. The dirty concrete floor is crumbling and the ceiling is missing a few tiles. It is clear this decaying building has been long abandoned.

Verschwinden (Disappear)

A mannequin with wooden hands stands in front of a sun like mirror. An urban setting can be seen in the reflection of the glass.

Ghosts-in-the-Machine

The front of a building with two two trees on either side of the entrance. To the right, a wall has the words "FUCK YOUR CITY" spray painted on it.

City Memos

An open window casts shadows against a red wall in Seattle.

Windows

Three multi-colored bricks meet at a perfect corner.

Marble & Tar
