Architectures of Hiding is the first symposium organized by Carleton Research | Practice of Teaching | Collaborative (CR|PT|C). The symposium, its online exhibition and the artistic dialogues Artengine collaborated on with CRIPTIC examined the idea of hiding in architectural design, construction and destruction, writing and drawing and of course in research. Artengine worked with CRIPTIC to produce a series of conversations with the creators presenting work in the online exhibition.
Artist Interviews
The Architectures of Hiding exhibition includes engaging work exploring the presence of the body public space, the erasure of history in contested landscapes, the development of camouflage, the speculative acts of hiding objects in the walls of construction and much more.
Through my work at Artengine I collaborated worked with Pallavi Swaranjali of CRIPTIC to produce a series of engaging conversations with the artist presenting work in the online exhibition.
The complete conference publication is available through Routledge.
