Lucy Orta: Fluid Architecture - Part 2 of 4

Paris based Lucy Orta worked for one month at the Drill Hall in Victoria Street Melbourne with community members from Carlton and Kensington public housing estates, users of Ozanam Community Centre in North Melbourne, fashion and industrial design students from RMIT, dance and movement students from Victoria University, architects from Federation Square, cultural theorist Nikos Papastergiadis, and the general public.

This was a series of multidisciplinary collaborations, theoretical discussions/forums, design, modelling, performance and architecture workshops held simultaneously and open to the general public. The starting points were looking at art as an agent of social change and nexus-heart: human empathy and our relationships to each other.
