33

33 is a photographic journey to discover, observe and understand the 32 + 1 boroughs of Greater London. Thirty-two boroughs with the addition of the autonomous City: thirty-three distinct areas but with almost imperceptible borders, except for the writings on door-to-door bins. An overflowing labyrinth of 1572 km2. Nine million inhabitants who every day try to make room for themselves by gently elbowing one another. A structure officially born in 1965, the result of studies that began in 1943 by Sir P. Abercrombie to rebuild a capital devastated by the bombings of the Second World War. Like Saturn, Greater London is adorned with a ring, the M25, which wraps around it and unofficially defines its boundaries with its asphalt. A galaxy in perpetual expansion, a multitude of solar systems that rotate in synchrony, in a motion of magnetic attraction and repulsion, linked by a reciprocal force of gravity.
