Lost in transit : tracing Toronto’s ravine landscapes in the subway Mutukistna, Brontë
Abstract
The place between beginning and end - arrival and destination. Lost in Transit explores the in-between space of Toronto’s subway system. Challenging the standardization of the contemporary urban experience and the increasing disconnection between people and place. In designing for place, this graduate project connects the subway commuter to Toronto’s historical and present-day ravine landscapes. As the commuter follows the traces of the ravines within the subway, a hidden landscape of sewered creeks and seepage emerges. This project explores how we can better create landscape literacy and care in today’s urban condition of sameness, and further proposes that to create novel spaces, we must look at landscapes in novel ways.
