The Urban Fabric
Parallel Events Venue: Museo De La Ciudad De Quito
Lead Organization:
- The Urban Fabric.
The Urban Fabric is a public intervention in which people participate by marking significant places into a hand-embroidered map of their city. They mark both positive and negative places by sewing symbols onto the map, guded by questions like "Where is the heart of the city?", "Where do I feel unsafe in the city?" Participants are also free to embroider personal images and words freely into the borders of the map.
