Deterred

exclusion by design

[exhibit]

is an upcoming exhibition of responses to 'hostile architecture'.

These works cast as their subject the ornaments of deterrence:

homeless spikes

roosting modifications

'pig's ears'

privatized "public" space

anti-bum benches

pavement sprinklers

Our urban environments are increasingly armed,

prodding us into specific behaviors 

and guiding the occupancy of public space by spear-point.
