Sol y Sombra: Environmental Diplomacy in the Context of Human Movement and Shadow Economies

The Sol y Sombra project lab has prototyped an interactive tool, for the analysis and 3D visualisation of territories such as the Orinoco River in the Venezuelan Amazon, which reveals its geographical, political, and economic complexity, by geolocating and overlaying interests, conflicts and possibilities. The tool highlights potential development opportunities, locations for emergent markets in clean natural resources and new labour economies and suggests these can generate added value for local and global communities.

Art as Labour : Build & Design Summer School in Nikola-Lenivets

We invite young architects, artists and students to take part in a Global Practice Unit international summer school, organized this summer at Nikola-Lenivets Art Park in Russia.

World-famous artists and architects will lead the process, inluding Nikolay-Polissky, the founder of the Nikola-Lenivets park, who revived the local rural community through art, and Alexandr Brodsky, painter and architect, as well as teachers from the Umea School of Architecture (Sweden), Limerick School of Architecture (Ireland), Oxford Brooks University (UK), and MARCH (Russia). The summer school will explore how art can generate and support communities and create an architectural intervention in the Park in response to this challenge.
