Living with water

Living with water

Research project about the rivers of Ghent and their influence on the city and its inhabitants

LUCA School of Arts | Erasmus semester in Belgium

My research project is focused on the water in Ghent, its effects on the city and its inhabitants, seen from my experience as an international student from Spain. I decided to focus my research on the rivers and canals in Ghent because they are an important part of my daily life.The first poster is a map of all the bodies of water in Ghent, such as rivers, canals and lakes. For the second poster, I edited pictures of the river to place the focus on the water and how people interact with it. Based on the results, I created different cathegories of these interactions.
