@tamarasparrow exhibited three curated pieces at BDW2019 titled ‘Dreaming memory in the city of Beirut’. As a means of relating space to art and art to society, the exhibition represents a map of a Beirut dystopia regenerating post war romantic ideals in a sense of longing / belonging. . . . #BDW2019 #BDWbyNine #DesignAndNostalgia

@linaghotmeh is the Founding Architect of @linaghotmeh_architecture, an international practice based in Paris. Her works deploy themselves at multiple scales and geographies - from object design to museum architecture, in France and abroad. . From the archeology of the city to the archeology of Nature, Lina Ghotmeh’s lecture transported us into a built ecological future imbued with memories. Each project presented was an invitation into a new sensitive realm; revealing a narration drawn into history and memory through a heightened sense of materiality. . . . #BDW2019 #BDWbyNine #DesignAndNostalgia
