In an art performance as part of our introductory courses, we focused on the topic of urban vacancy. In a steadily worsening housing crisis, thousands of apartments are still empty and unused, mostly in the interest of the owners' profit. In our first performance, we tried to give a vacant apartment life again.
In the second part of the performance, we tried talking to people in the building. We found one woman who was willing to talk to us about what it's like to live in a building that's half-empty.
