Larissa Fassler: Mapping meaning in the city.

For Episode 181 of the A is for Architecture Podcast, I was joined by the Berlin-based artist, Larissa Fassler whose work explores through imagery and sculpture - aesthetic, layered, ambiguous maps, models and interventions - the social and political spatialites of cities and their everyday encounter by people there. Larissa’s work has intrigued and delighted me for quite a long time, so it was a real prize to finally get to meander with her through a very little of her thinking, experiences, background and motivations. As I understand it, Larissa’s work derives from deep engagement in places, documenting them through a host of means and rendering them as something like palimpsests, which in turn demand close and slow encounter by their public, producing a sort-of double coded knowledge of cities and the people who live with them, pointing thus towards space’s meaning and possibilities.  It’s all very architectural, or at least, I think, towards that which we in architectural education might in our better moments aspire. Larissa can be found on her website (http://www.larissafassler.com/) , on Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/larissafass...) and via Galerie POGGI (https://galeriepoggi.com/?s=larissa) , with whom she works. Viewshed, a very good book on her work, can be found at Distanz (https://www.distanz.de/buecher/) , its publishers, as can the catalogue for Building Worlds here (https://dcv-books.com/produkt/larissa...) . There are good articles on Larissa’s work in many places.   + Music credits: ⁠Bruno Gillick (  / user-229193274  )   #LarissaFassler #UrbanMapping #ArchitecturePodcast #Psychogeography #ContemporaryArtAndArchitecture #SocialSpace #CityAsPalimpsest #SpatialPolitics #ArtAndUrbanism #BerlinArtScene
