Drawing Otherwise. Imagining Architectures, Sites, Places, Infrastructures and Landscapes.
In order to build the world otherwise we need to learn how to draw otherwise. In order to draw otherwise we need to learn how to imagine otherwise. The symposium DRAWING OTHERWISE imagines architectures, sites, places, infrastructures and landscapes by un/doing, un/learning, un/seeing and un/drawing against and beyond existing conditions and wants to explore other possible futures of living together. Bringing together practitioners, theorists and scholars from architecture, visual culture, and art education the symposium explores the potential of articulating imaginaries based on solidarity, reciprocity, generosity, and empathy.
We navigate between what is and what could be: How forms of representation draw on, and thus reproduce, existing norms of inequity, extraction, and domination; and how the contributions work toward drawing otherwise into being transformative spaces, healing infrastructures, and new care-full imaginaries for digital and physical realms.
