SURVIVE. RESIST: Broken City Lab

Broken City Lab installed its intervention "REFLECT ON HERE" directly in front of the Kitchener City Hall.  A sign built with 8-foot-tall letters coated in retro-reflective material, which refelcted the lights of each turning vehicle from dusk until dawn. REFLECT ON HERE called on people to think about the infrastructure of the city, the attempt to create place with architecture, and the materiality of the text itself.
 
Broken City Lab is an artist-led interdisciplinary creative research group that tactically disrupts and engages the city, its communities, and its infrastructures to re-imagine the potential for action in the collapsing post-industrial city of Windsor, Ontario.
