‘Sapphire City’ in Morley & Outwood is the re-imagining of the Emerald City in ‘The Wizard of Oz’ and is an interpretation of Grayson Perry’s ‘Tunbridge Wells’. A promise, especially promises of a fulfilling life after retirement, is the currency of the intervention. The project looks at how the current government and the conservative party could exploit planning strategies to manipulate the demography into gaining more northern constituencies.
