The main issue of the serie is not important people, neither Chicago's iconic architecture, but the common citizens, from all social conditions, spaces and places who help to code the hidden view of the city, which helps to the mixed nature of Chicago.
This way of looking to the common, reclaims for stories, in which things, buildings, people, interiors, in spite of looking like still or silence, comes really to true stories.
So, Urbina's work carry out from some starting approaches, where camera or final result is not the only aim, but a process to get an open narration, full of different forms of interpretation: claim for real, understood as a network of relations and the city as main object of research and artistic practice.
