Border Choreographies on Harvard Urban Review, Permeabilities issue
We are excited to share our contribution to the 2024 edition of Harvard Urban Review, Permeabilities, with the project Border Choreographies: Identity – Body - Personhood, developed in collaboration with Adriana David and Maria Gracia San Martin in 2021.
Border Choreographiesexplores how the body is traumatized when crossing a border, revealing the deeply intertwined relationship between body, personhood, identity, and territory. Through a human-scale perspective, the project sheds light on the violence, conflict, and exploitation embedded in border crossings, while also uncovering acts of solidarity and hope.
We are honored to be part of this issue, which challenges and expands the concept of permeability through a diverse range of critical perspectives.

The show was on display from the 5th of October until the 17th of December 2023.
The exhibitions discussed the theory of Planetary Urbanisation and offer insights resulting from long-standing collaborative research conducted at the Department of Architecture at ETH Zürich by the Chair of Sociology of Prof. Christian Schmid and the Chair of Architecture and Territorial Planning of Milica Topalović. The exhibition captured results through cartographic maps, illustrations, photographs and film and is organised in two thematic strands. Planetary Urbanisation focuses on sixteen metropolises and peripheral regions. It offers new concepts and cartographies of urbanisation processes, traces struggle against their devastating effects, and proposes agendas for collective action. Agrifutures Zürich presents approaches to sustainable food production, alternative to ongoing agricultural intensification. Agroecological design visions describe Zurich’s future food region based on ecological farming, cooperativism, and commoning.
As part of this exhibition, the work of the MAS Urban and Territory Design from the past two years was included in which Kaproulia, Clarke and Gajjar participated. The group showcased their project ‘’A Fantasy of Diversity for the Alpine Pastures: Relearning Reslience in the Zurcher Oberland’’ with a poster presentation.
