#BiennaleArchitettura2025 Special mention as National Participation to the #BritishPavilion. “A dialogue between Great Britain and Kenya about reparation and renewal. The Pavilion reveals architecture as architecture that is defined by extraction that produce inequality and environmental degradation. The Jury notes attempts to imagine a new relation between architecture and geology.”

@McDonaldScott_ @BritishCouncil Great to see Brummie Tolkien as No 1 in the fiction uk novel category! An impressive and iconic list of artists who have helped define things substantially for so many lives. Energising!

Not many peeps know that the rain forest of Papua New Guinea is the 3rd largest on our planet. I am delighted to be co-curating a film and culture programme in the important region of the Sepik River, Papua New Guinea working with the Akeroyd Collection and The Mariwai Project with local village residents. See the link.
