Apostrophe Ess: Meditations on Writing and Editing during a Genocide
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: This text is a mediation on architectural writing and editing during genocide, structured as a parallel essay — one in the main text, and another in the footnotes — it is an attempted combination of manifesto, elegy, declaration, and invitation. Grounded in the idea that writing is a form of critical, spatial practice, the text reflects on Achille Mbembe’s notion of disenclosure as a pry-bar to wedge open a tender and direct engagement with architecture’s complicity in the ongoing erasure of Palestinian lifeworlds.
