‘Street Line Critics’ is a socially engaged art project which built up a network of writers who share their thoughts, experiences and insights about particular places and routes in their city using words of chalk as their medium. They offer alternative perspectives of how we see and use our public places. Opening up our streets through their musings and observations as a canvas to start a critical conversation with and about the city.
By providing these impermanent monuments to the everyday, they are drawing attention to these spaces which belong to all of us and are engaging in a process of mapping out, through words, how their city is lived, walked, worked and used.
This was a site specific project which took into account how the writings affect your particular view of the place in which you find it.
