After meeting up with a couple of guys who showed me a few parkour spots around Liverpool Street I decided to undertake a project which looks at how people who practice parkour look at the city completely differently to everyone else. Everyday objects take on a new meaning; railings, walls and fences are no longer barriers but elements of this urban playground to be enjoyed.
My film will be centred around Christ's Church in Spitalfields and the film concept will be looking at how the view of the architect who is inspired by the symmetry and proportions of the body differs from that of the traceur who is inspired by the architecture and the limits of his own body.
