Urban Fabric Melville

This intervention forms part of the Melville Poetry Festival, 2012 on the intersection of 4th Ave and & 7th Str, Melville.



It is a comment on the state of our roads. I inserted some words to resonate with the festival title "More than just Words". I used left- over pieces of fabric donated by various people to literally weave into the fabric of the city - almost as if I am trying to mend the roads myself. With the left-over pieces of fabric I aim to address Johannesburg inhabitants who often feel powerless to do anything about the neglected state of our city - even the smallest action makes a difference and has the potential to become something more.
