Public Works want to raise our awareness of how public land being sold off by the government into the private sector. They share their expertise on how we can protect our common land for now and the future.
This film gives an insight into the ideas and questions being asked in The Garden of Privatised Delights, the exhibition at the British Pavilion for the Venice Architecture Biennale 2021. Manijeh Verghese and Madeleine Kessler, the curators for the British Pavilion 2021, invite us to engage in the debate around the privatisation of public space in Britain today; from the pub to the playground, common land to the garden square, the high street to facial recognition technology.
