| The course is experimental, interdisciplinary and practice-based at advanced level, bringing together an intimate group of practitioners and researchers to be in dialogue and engagement with each other alongside invited guests. It is led by Marie-Louise Richards, Lecturer in Architecture, and is part of the Department for Research and Further Education in Architecture and Fine Art at the Royal Institute of Art in Stockholm.
What might it mean to imagine spatial practices that center the emotional and affective labor required to refuse the world as we know it? The course asks what kind of reparative world-building practice could emerge if careful attention was paid to the bodily, affective work, and the physical and mental cost that are demanded in undermining colonial scripts. The course is one-year and full-time, taking place in-person in Stockholm. The group meets monthly for five-day intensive sessions with lectures, seminars, workshops, case studies, and site visits.
Between Fall 2023–Spring 2025 the course has hosted, and been hosted by: Camille Sapara Barton, Tina Campt, Asta Diawara, Mariam Elnozahy, Athena Farrokhzad, Ulrika Flink, Samuel Grima, Cecilia Germain, Saidiya Hartman, Joshua Idehen, Sofia Jernberg, Aspar Karahyuseinov, Bea Macintosh, Eric Magassa, Gabriela De Matos, Ayesha Quraishi, Burcu Sahin, Sara Solomon Utberg, Françoise Vergès, Lisa Tan, André Taylor, Yemisi Wilson, Carla Zaccagnini.
