Architecture often represents the daily life and characteristics of it's inhabitants.

The video "Primary Swarm" (2020) by Agnieszka Mastalerz and Michał Szaranowicz is staged in a wind tunnel used for analyzing the flow of air. A group of people is moving towards a gate. Their relationship is not clear, they might be competitors. From a standing point, the people start to crawl. Outside, the natural environment represents an actual area in the city of Warsaw, Poland, where new apartments are supposed to be built. The artists wanted to document the current status of the landscape, before its transformation. While witnessing the slow disappearance of a green area of the city, previously available for the community and now passing in private hands, the artists wonder who will be entitled to live in those spaces and how architecture influences forms of collective life.

The event was conceived by Jan Kattein Architects, Enfield Council, and St John & St James C of E Primary School in Edmonton, North London . On 23 July 2021 we closed the street in front of the school to cars for a day to seed the idea that space in the city needs to be first and foremost reserved for people. Chalk drawing, experimental den building, an outside gallery of student artwork, an ice-cream tricycle and a pop-up zoo proposed alternative uses for the street with a view to permanently transform the street into a space for play, social interaction and biodiversity in the future.
