//SPREAD

“The installation for the 2021 Seoul Biennale for Architecture and Urbanism questions if ‘Swiss’ architecture can be understood as just the formal character of specific alpine building elements. Fabricating Swissness is a four-sided aluminium scaffold structure measuring 2m x 2m x 3.6m that illustrates the notion of “Swissness” and the Swiss chalet style in New Glarus, Wisconsin through vernacular imagery, audio, and memorabilia.”
