Expansion restricted by the concrete noose which surrounds it on three sides and by the river on the other, the city of Glesga has but almost suffocated itself. Glesga has become a compact city. The trend of urban living has spread and vast amounts of people have flocked here in a bid to call this place their home. Pure greed has consumed all available parcels of land, overtaken parks. Every slender crevice inhabited by some form of structure. Consequently, new citizens have had no other option but to extend the existing buildings, outwards over the streets & upwards towards the sky. Nature has become endangered, almost a myth.

The architecture of the Glesga has been irreversibly changed. Once a series of quaint narrow lanes and spacious avenues, the lanes have been amalgamated into the city blocks, the streets transformed into deep urban crevices thrown into perpetual darkness. Glesga has now become a giant maze. Without light, the details of the city are indistinguishable. Upon every turn of every corner, the city looks exactly the same. Those who live here are forever shrouded in fear that they may never find their way out of the chaos.

Despite this, the citizens have heard of a secret garden oasis in the centre of the city, protected from the greed of construction at all costs. A space where trees and vegetation grow, nature thrives, air and light are in abundance. Antidote to the urban illness. Like the prize at the centre of the maze, citizens mindlessly roam the streets searching and dreaming of the day they finally find their way out of the dark and into the light. But only a few may ever be able to visit the oasis in order to protect its beauty.
