Through the Lights: The Lansdowne Christmas Market
At first glance, the Lansdowne Christmas Market appears to be the ideal holiday spot, with twinkling lights, cheerful music, and cozy stalls selling artisanal goods. However, beneath the festive surface lies a more profound story about the social and political dynamics of this space. This audio documentary combines the sensory richness of the market with critical inquiry, exploring how Lansdowne's redevelopment reflects broader themes of gentrification and commercialization.
The project raises important questions about inclusivity, accessibility, and the evolving identity of public spaces in an increasingly commercialized world by investigating how they are curated and who uses them, encouraging listeners to reflect on these interconnected issues.
