Architecture Amplified: Building Communities
Who has permission – perceived or real – to gather, to dwell, to occupy, to be visible in buildings, streets, neighbourhoods, the city?
Curator Kate Goodwin with architect Qianyi Lim take inspiration from PHIVE, Parramatta’s civic and cultural hub designed by Manuelle Gautrand in partnership with Lacoste + Stevenson and DesignInc, to explore the relationship of architecture, community and equitable environments through a program of walks, talks and site-specific performances.
Architects and local creatives will lead tours of PHIVE and the surrounding area, providing insights into its current use and future possibilities. The day includes a site-specific performance in PHIVE and two complementary panels involving architects, planners, policy makers, community activists and creative practitioners exploring how the built environment shapes, and is shaped by, communities.
