ECHOES, September 2025

​

Happy to share my contribution with three poems — Water as Matrix, Breath of the Lagoon, and Where Residents Once Were — each conceived as an extended caption to my black-and-white analog photographs of waters and textures.

 

"Echoes is a collaborative publication that follows Reverberations, the MA Research Architecture exhibition of 2025. It is an assemblage of poems, images, readings, reflections, experiences and contradictions. A collective space to express our solidarity, to enjoy our concomitance. To be creative, reflective, and playful; a contemplation of the year spent together, remembering the before and on our way into the after. This publication is the form given to the thoughts and reflections that didn’t fit in our academic texts. Quiet fragments which come together, louder."
