Episode Synopsis

Under the theme of Architectures of Hiding, this lecture-performance, creates a rewriting of history in the form of a series of speculative events that are rooted in political incidents that affected the artist’s family. It explores the link between architecture, memory, and history, focusing on the institutions—school, hospital, and prison—through which the state imprints power on or actually destroys bodies to eradicate memory and control the writing of History. The podcast features Anahita Norouzi in conversation with Ryan Stec, Artistic Director at Artengine, and Pallavi Swaranjali, co-convenor, Architectures of Hiding and co-coordinator of C R | P T | C.
