Faculty Spotlight: Eva Perez de Vega: Questioning Architecture as a Practice of Domination

Eva’s project aims to address the biases that perpetuate a teaching of architecture as a practice of domination; from a global scale that addresses our environmental footprint and human exceptionalist attitudes; to that of the materials we specify in projects and select in model-making; to the practices of domination that playout in the classroom through project reviews and discussions; where students and minority-faculty are subjected to patriarchal norms that regurgitate the status quo of a mostly male and mostly white dominated profession.
