Performing a language for the messy reality of the everyday world.
Performing a language for the messy reality of the everyday world.

This research examines the use of performance, as an intuitive creative process deploying meaning and formulating a different architectural language. Specific focus was given in the ways with which interpretations of reality have been represented in the context of the late 20th early 21st century, amongst literature, mass media, design and how the distancing of experience from the observer, can be used as a tool of intensifying meaning. This derived from a need to reframe the future of the use of narrative, challenging the limitations or inadequacies of the established mediums of representation. The methodology of this project followed a progression from an analytical theoretical review to the physical experimentation of performance. This progression aimed to generate insights on the overall reading of real "messy" events that form the everyday or banal and their interpretation into a performed architectural experience surrounded by a naturalistic setting.
