Curator

Exhibition at the Canadian Centre for Architecture, Montreal

First, the Forests examines some unexplored relationships between forestry, planning and design. Reframing forestry as an activity that creates highly designed environments with unprecedented scale, ambition and precision, the exhibition proposes an expanded understanding of the connections between natural resources, production processes, and designed form.

The exhibition followed a research project developed in residency as winner of the inaugural CCA Young Curator program
