But what of the left-over bits - the unused yet necessary undercrofts, yawnings and gaps produced by the internal use and shape of buildings? The Unused evolves a number of architect and artist projects that inhabit these inhospitable spaces to create narratives and nuances that reflect upon economics, the collection and archive, the crime scene and social space. Presented by the Melbourne Festival's Visual Arts, Film and Architecture Program 2002, in association with the RMIT School of Architecture and Design.
