Gigi Scaria investigates how city structures, social constructs, and the view of location is translated into social prejudice and class attitude. Indulging in the core of urban life made the urbanite think of themselves as a romantic outsider to the system that they deeply inhaled. They wanted to get out of the clutches of the system. Many who went to the wilderness of nature never returned. Many ran away from all that they belonged to, but failing to conform with the ‘outside’, came back with much more intensity and conviction that urbanism is the spiritual condition of modern man.
