New Models is a lecture series that invites practitioners to discuss how their work can change the models around which society is organised. These conversations will address how we can shift power structures, socio-economic forces and structural inequalities present in society today to give us new tools to rethink the world around us.
What if it’s not about recognition but instead about love. Do you LOVE us?
Why do we find ourselves waiting to be acknowledged for our ideas? For the invitation to contribute to a platform provided by people that don’t look like us. (Although we can do without the photographer's recognition that we are the only ethnic at an architecture event). Or to be given some random accolade by an institution that was not created by us, or for us?
But craving recognition is vulgar right? Not if we create an alternative vision of celebration for the future, unrecognisable to the systems we have now. Sound Advice, SaLADs and Siufan Adey (Afterparti / Panic FM) will discuss how to design New Models of Recognition (and love) as a tool to deliver a more equitable built environment.
