The CIVA and the Thalie Foundation are joining forces for a weekend of encounters dedicated to earthen architecture on 26 and 27 November, in the context of the Warch\u00e9<\/em> exhibition presented at the Foundation until 10 December.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Warch\u00e9<\/em>, meaning “worksite” in Arabic, offers an immersive experience of earthen architecture through the gesture of Lebanese architect Lina Ghotmeh<\/strong> – a carpet of 13,000 reused bricks covers the floor of the Foundation, creating an agora – and in dialogue with the sculptural and video works by Sara Ouhaddou<\/strong> and Emilija \u0160karnulyt\u0117<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Panel discussion, Saturday 26 November at 4 pm<\/span><\/strong>
\nHow to build in times of environmental crisis?<\/em> <\/strong><\/p>\n

With Lina Ghotmeh, architect, Sara Ouhaddou, visual artist, architects collective Bento<\/strong>.
\nCo-moderated by Anissa Touati<\/strong>, curator of\u00a0Warch\u00e9<\/em>, and Valentine Umansky<\/strong>, curator at Tate Modern, London.<\/p>\n

Following the round table, collector-entrepreneur\u00a0Miguel Carvalho<\/strong>\u00a0will introduce his Melides Art project<\/a> based in Portugal which will give a second life to the bricks of Lina Ghotmeh’s installation.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

The speakers of this panel discussion deploy a sustainable, historical and regenerative perspective on the city of tomorrow<\/strong>. Their construction practices either on site or in the workshop question the sustainability of production methods and their impact on our way of life. They favour the use of materials that return to the earth, such as bricks, raw earth, mycelium or workshop residues. They question the trace and therefore the circularity of materials, their regenerative principles and recycling in relation to construction.<\/p>\n

Based on this observation, the city of the future is now being thought through the reappropriation of artisanal know-how<\/strong>, experimenting materials and using local channels. These attempts allow for a post-human and futuristic reflection on the city of tomorrow; where an ecological future is inscribed in the continuity of ancestral traditions and the past to imagine new architectural forms by making a cultural heritage perceived in a sensitive way – And poses a fundamental question: how to coexist on a territory? Should we live or cohabit?<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

On Sunday 27 November, this special programme continues at CIVA with\u00a0a lecture given by Lina Ghotmeh<\/strong> at 7 pm. Further information on this programme\u00a0here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u25a0 Sara Ouhaddou<\/a><\/strong> (born in 1986 in France) works between France and Morocco.

\u25a0 Bento <\/a><\/strong>is an association of architects that puts the experimentation of matter<\/strong> at the centre of its reflections.\u00a0Living matter questions the sustainability of our current production methods and their impact on our way of life.\u00a0Starting from this observation and\/or this obligation, the architects of Bento make a point of exalting it, of going beyond it, to build a bridge between architecture, art and design, in particular by experiencing the resources of mycelium<\/strong>. Bento was the winner of Europan 16 on the CIVA<\/strong> site in Brussels (2022), and has just been appointed to curate the Belgian Pavilion at the 18th Venice Architecture Biennale<\/strong> (2023) with\u00a0philosopher Vinciane Despret<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
