This project involved exploring the area around Covent Garden in the form of a dérive.
We were tasked with analysing our dérive experience in the form of a question, before embarking on individual projects to exhibit our findings in a classroom environment.

The synergy between people and city creates a certain flow. As we go about on our daily commute, we seem content to hand over control to this flow— drifting along the streets and alleyways of the city.
In this project I attempt to identify, analyse and compare the traits of the city and that of a river from recollections of the derive.
What drifts along with the current? What are left unmoving?
The evidence is examined, consolidated, and presented in various forms of printed material.
