GBR – Geology of Britannic Repair
From May to November, GBR – The Geology of Britannic Repair took over the British Pavilion at the 19th International Architecture Exhibition in Venice. A groundbreaking collaboration between a UK and Kenyan curatorial team, the exhibition explored the UK’s complex historical relationship with Kenya, drawing parallels between architecture and colonisation as interconnected systems. We were delighted to be awarded the Biennale's Special Mention for National Participation.
