Urban imagination: Vertical city

Can you imagine Brussels as a vertical city? Anne Manteleers is an artist living and working in Brussels. She (really) loves the city so it is unsurprising that Brussels often features in her work.

‘Vertical City’ is an ongoing project where she uses existing Brussels buildings to build a new, imaginary city. The finished Vertical City will be a two-meter long pen drawing.
