Nature of Hope
[APPLIED] FOREIGN AFFAIRS (Institute
of Architecture) will be participating in the 11th International Architecture Biennale Rotterdam (IABR) under the theme "Nature
of Hope."
[A]FA will present a 9-channel video installation, titled “Soft
Unsealing” narrating diverse facets of its ongoing project "Tamale Old Airfield" in Ghana. This urban project transforms an
abandoned runway built in the 1920s into a vibrant recreational space in the heart of the city of Tamale.
Titled
"Nature of Hope," this edition of the IABR explores the interplay between nature, culture, and hope through the lens of architectural
innovation and practice. It delves into the essential question: What does it take to confront the uncertainties of the future
amidst profound and multifaceted transformations? Essentially, what are the building blocks necessary to sustain hope?
