Architecture can embody and project power. But it can also, especially in our cities, be a tool in the hands of those who resist, expressing the creativity and resilience of their cultures. In Episode 6 of our Culture and the City Series, Tim Williams speaks about this and much more with Sumayya Vally, Johannesburg-born founder of Counterspace. In 2021 Sumayya designed the Serpentine Pavilion and in 2022-23, she will curate the inaugural Islamic Arts Biennale in Jeddah. In this powerful and compelling conversation, Sumayya traces the paths of her career trajectory and sources of inspiration, revealing why the city is the place where diverse peoples gather and co-create.  Hosted on Acast.
