- This thesis contributes to a critical understanding of urban culture and creative spatial production in the city, with a particular focus on the surfaces of the built environment. The thesis furthers academic scholarship on street art, graffiti and the right to the city by engaging with legal and semiotic methodologies to understand urban surfaces and inscriptions.
The main argument of the project is that urban surfaces are spaces of collective political production and agency, and are key sites for the exploration of urgent notions such as the right to the city and the urban commons.
