My Area

The project called My Area is based on posters designed to be placed on any wall within any public space, privately or publicly owned, stating a humble assertion of possession and a reflection on the space where the posters are displayed.

My area is a statement about one specific area over which an unusual ownership is declared - a subjective me is claiming that area. There are no offers or information but the childish claim for space.
