Flanders Architecture Institute (VAi) is organising a workshops series, the second being Repositioning Architecture Culture from the Margins.

This workshop is about the urgent need to decolonise the ways we think about architecture. Repositioning Architecture Culture from the Margins aims to collectively discuss those groups of people, often at the intersection of class, race and gender, that are essential for the architectural production, but that are nonetheless marginalised or forgotten by it.

The event requires participants to send in a copyright free image when registering, as the flow of the workshops will be organised around these images.

In collaboration with illustrator Aya Akbib, the discussions will be visually narrated, respecting anonymity and authorship. The visual narrations together with the image galleries collectively built up throughout the workshops will be exhibited in De Singel from 17 May till 02 July 2023.

Moderated by Ola Hassanain, the workshop will take place in Globe Aroma, Brussels on 25 April 2023, at 18.30.
