Brazza

Antoine Boutet

Ici Brazza: a wasteland in its final throes. 53 hectares of “negotiated urban land” are to be transformed into anfriendly district – an extensive real estate programthe spirit of the times. As the chronicle of a wasteland undergoing transformation, Brazza the annoucement of a “new art of living” in the unrefined reality of the land. Mud seeps under the veneer of words and promising models, squatters find their way in, frogs become restless, causing a complete reshuffling of the maps and the plans designed by promoters and architects. Arousing both desire and fright, the different stages of the changing landscape provide us with a glimpse into the city of the future.
