Reimagining Winchester: Intensifying heritage through architecture

Pablo Martinez Capdevila, Tina Wallbridge

Research output: Non-textual formExhibition

Abstract

How history, technology, culture, landscape and innovative thinking can inform design and regional cultural identity?
How we can map, decipher and activate a place where Roman traces, Saxon and Ecclesiastical enclosures and the memory of Jane Austen coexist with gentrification, tourism and Pokemon-go?
This exhibition is a collaboration with the Hampshire Cultural Trust that seeks to initiate a discussion concerning future urban transformations and cultural interfaces and is part of a continuing practice and research exploring the interrelationship between collective memory, narrative, identity and architecture. It will juxtapose the museum collections with speculative architectural drawings and artefacts in order to entice public into the space.
