Yet the furrowed modern not only reverses the arrow of time; it turns all other directions on their head as well. It both builds up toward the skies and digs into the depths. To these diverging movements Bürkle lends an astonishing visibility. She submits “explorations of depth” (Freud) of urban situations that take us both upward with the modern and downward into the unknown depths of archaeology. Freud’s reversion to the early developmental stages of consciousness corresponds with Bürkle’s archaeological regression that digs all the more insistently into the depths as the modern makes more and more headway into unimagined heights. Bürkle’s tenacious study of depth functions like an archaeology of urban unconsciousness that persistently digs at the places systematically repressed and built-over by the advancements of the modern.
