Futures of Memory

Architect, designer, and scholar Mabel O. Wilson shares her explorations on the complexities of the architectures of commemoration. She reconsiders how marginalized histories challenge conventional uses of archives and the design of commemorative landscapes in ways that catalyze new modalities of remembering and imagining possible futures.

On October 25, 2025, the MCA Chicago hosted Deem Journal’s third annual symposium. Designing for Dignity 03: A Convening of Possibilities carried forth the thematic discourse of the past two years with a day of hybrid in-person/online programming dedicated to expansive perspectives on liberatory design thinking, and grounded in the shared value of dignity. Through presentations, conversations, and a participatory activation, this daylong gathering considered challenging and topical subjects through the intersecting lenses of design and social practice.

Designing for Dignity 03: A Convening of Possibilities is made possible with support from the Richard H. Driehaus Foundation, the Graham Foundation, and is presented as part of the sixth edition of the Chicago Architecture Biennial.
