01/11/2022
The exhibit features maps of 6 vulnerable neighborhoods in South Florida that are the result of student research and conversations with neighbors. They show the simultaneous superposition of buildings in three times: 1. Those of the past that have been demolished, 2. Those of the present, and 3. Future projects aimed at a public of greater economic affluence and different from the current population.

The maps are drawn as three-dimensional representations that communicate the anxiety and tensions that neighbors experience under the threat of being displaced by real estate investments. It will later be exhibited at the Martin Luther King Economic Development Corporation in Liberty City, Miami.
