Building Diversity has been included to the Feminist Spatial Practices interactive mapping. The creators Byrony Roberts and Abri Aiken write on the project:
“Feminist Spatial Practices, Part 1, by @bryony_roberts_studio and @abri.aiken
Feminist Spatial Practices is a multi-part visual mapping project and online platform to amplify feminist spatial practices and build community among feminist practitioners around the world.
Part 1 is a visual diagram commissioned by @e_flux that celebrates the wide range of contemporary feminist spatial practices and points to specific ways in which feminist practices are expanding the fields of the built environment. We’re exploring how feminist spatial practices around the world introduce ways of knowing and making that enable more just and equitable futures. While it is impossible to depict the full range of global practices in one drawing, this diagram offers one vantage point onto the undulating terrain of interconnected feminist practices. Part 1 grew from dialogue with many voices and, through its incompleteness, points to future iterations and participatory formats. The diagram celebrates practices in six realms: Experimental Pedagogies, Expanded Histories, Embodied Theories, Collaborative Practices, Spaces for Non-Conforming Bodies, and Alternative Materialities. These modes of practice emerge in relation to activist movements and political conflicts around the world, depicted here as a diagonal axis of ongoing political struggles.
Part 2 will be a participatory, open-source online resource that will go further to identify practices around the world, visualize connections between them, and offer a medium for community-building and exchange. If you’re interested in participating, you can find more information in the link in bio.”
Thank you for including Building Diversity.
