Soil, Land, Fill
October 20, 2022, 12pm
Hybrid (Buell Room 300S)
A discussion among Catherine Fennell, Vanessa Agard-Jones, Linda F. Chavez Baca, and Seth Denizen.
This conversation brings together practitioners of design, landscape, and anthropology in the Americas, to share notes on the unique capacity of the soil–and its associated practices such as filling–to reveal new modes of chemical kinship, new tasks for public archaeology, and new remedial building practices that have arisen on post-industrial land.
Organized as one of the Conversations on Architecture and Land in and out of the Americas by the Buell Center.

Air as Archive
2022 Plein Air Talks is organized in conjunction with the advanced studio series “Plein Air” taught by Nahyun Hwang, initiated in the fall of 2020. The series explores the complex material and socio-political performance of air, and the intersectional vulnerabilities and agencies of air as a critical spatial medium.
