The relationship between dust and architecture has always been ambiguous. As the other \u2013 a trace of the outside, a threat to the definition of form \u2013 dust is ignored, removed or feared. And yet dust is made, also and largely, of architecture. Vice versa, dust interferes with, seeps into, unsettles, but also develops a possibility for architecture, as it questions the definition of its form, as well as the structural and temporal stability of its construct. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A reconsideration of the relationship between architecture and dust invites a trans-scalar thinking of the material in architecture, from the microscopic definition of what constitutes architectural materiality, to the explosion of the object and of perspectival vision as a form of control (and a control of form). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Architecture_Dust considers dust as a material agent of the undoing of form, an index of the disruption of social conventions of gender, privacy and domesticity, and of different economies of the body, architecture and the city, and as a critical and disruptive tool of what remains after the explosion of architecture\u2019s established orders \u2013 the architectural object and its representations, space and its definitions \u2013 but no longer belongs to them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
