Engagements 

We are interested in lively thought, the fuzzy edges of ideas-in-formation and the crafting of weird ruptures which bring to the fore that which ordinarily lies beyond. Here, we hand over to a series of invited contributions and originally commissioned pieces which engage with the work of this project and offer something new in return. 

Launching in 2020 - 2021, Race, Space & Architecture is home to a series of works produced in response to and alongside the materials of the curriculum and constellations. 

We are proud to host engagements with:

Gloria Pavita 

Reader, writer and storyteller of an often unseen everyday, one inhabited by people who aren't warranted the privilege to write or speak for themselves.
