A Secular Church for the Climate Crisis
How might architecture help us live within instability, to “stay with the trouble,” as Donna Haraway writes? Architecture not as or from an organized network, but rather configured, and come to pause within the entanglements, the troubles, the mortality.
On Felch Park in Ann Arbor, Michigan, this project proposes four programs in various states of containment from the outdoors: a lobby, a corridor, a practice studio, a theater. Changing with each season, the design uses scents, weather, and sunlight as found material. These four loosely contained spaces create a secular church to bring people together to mourn and cope with the effects of climate change.
