About
In the seventh exhibition of the SUPER ESTATE PROJECTS, British artist, Camilla Brueton, extends her body of work on examining the relationship between people and architecture. Resulting in a series of drawings and photographic montages that highlight how the individual lives and makes their mark within the uniformity of high-density housing.
The living spaces within Golden Lane Estate are compact but thoughtfully designed. A change in flooring delineates an 'indoor balcony' within some studio flats, doors slide rather than open in places, light and air flow through. Fifty years on from their original conception the design of Golden Lane Estate is still relevant to contemporary living, and Brueton's work goes some way towards celebrating and highlighting these design features.
