During a one-month residency at 3e imperial, Granby, Quebec, I worked to develop the project Subtle Architectures Subtiles. My daily work consisted of constructing and shifting spaces along a meandering. Granby is a small town and I often found myself working alone. I began to wonder what it would be like to have other people accompany me in this process. I invited people to show me the spaces they frequented. They took me for walks around town and described the quality of these locations. It was this aspect of the process that prompted a restructuring of the project for the subsequent Dare-Dare series.
