Abstract

‘Substantiating Displacement’ is a reflection on my architectural practice by the making of new projects. It substantiates (establishes by evidence) my displacement from the centre of architecture to a more liminal position in the overlapping field of art and architecture. This methodological displacement reveals and questions the operational tactics and conceptual frameworks I work with(in), by actively engaging with mediators (among others art & artists) in the reflection on and the design and creation of architecture, in order to explore the transitional space between subject and object. In this exploration I consider this transitional space to be the intermediate space of human experience that architecture opens up and in which it operates between our inner reality and an environment exterior to it, between shaping an environment while simultaneously being subject to it, between a material environment and its immaterial capacity to affect us. ispartof: The Practice of Spatial Thinking: Differentiation Processes pages:111-120 ispartof: pages:111-120 status: published
