Above/Below/Between: Light on a Damaged Planet: CCA-WRI Research Fellowship Program 2022

The recognition of the manifold meanings and architectural mediations of light, which are becoming only more salient in our era of ecological crises, is common to both the CCA and the Window Research Institute. This affinity has led to our working with the WRI to jointly provide conditions for deep inquiries into the phenomenon of light. This collaboration represents a new model of fellowship for the CCA; whereas our institution observes an ever-expanding array of architectural subjects, the WRI holds a specific focus on light and windows, in their technological, cultural, and societal dimensions. This combination of research frameworks can afford special parameters for inquiries into this subject.

Join 2022 CCA-WRI Fellows Casper Laing Ebbensgaard, Alina Nazmeeva, and Jessica Vaughn as they share their research on contemporary light conditions across scales, geographies, arts practices, and legal regimes.
