Christina Deluchi and Guillermo Fernández-Abascal: Images of Architecture
Architecture discussion
16 November 2025
11am–1pm
What is the relationship between architecture and its depiction in photography? Together Christina Deluchi and Guillermo Fernández-Abascal will unpack a series of images about architecture and the city. Moving between Medellín, Tirana, and Bahrain—and various exhibitions and projects—the images explore forms of authorship and collaboration, transformative processes and techniques, urban politics, and everyday life. Connected by their stories, each image examines the reciprocal relationship between photography and architecture, establishing a dialogue on the built environment.
Off Grid is a series of architecture discussions led by Andrew Wilson, Senior Lecturer in Architecture at University of Queensland, and Andrew Leach, Professor of Architectural History at Queensland University of Technology, both Meanjin/Brisbane.
