Bruch set up small urban treks for himself: walks around various downtown blocks. He set off, going only in one direction, stopping from time to time to make rubbings of the urban topography. The final drawings are abstract documentaries of those treks. They are close ups of the urban environment. They draw attention to that landscape where we walk and where some of our fellow citizens live.
