Michelle Paterok for several years has been exploring in her work the politics of space, urban planning and housing strategies. Space, and access to it has become a vital resource, not unlike access to water.  What does it mean today to have a “space of ones’ own?” What strategies—long standing or ad hoc—is one to employ to have access to urban space, transitory or not? Athens is Paterok’s latest stop—after Tokyo and Palestine/Israel—where as the 2018 recipient of the Vorres Museum’s Canadian Artist Residency Programme—she was able to explore the city’s-built environment and the evolving negotiating strategies of access to housing.
