About the theme "Identity"

The theme “Identity?” is chosen by curators Wendy Djuhara (djuhara+djuhara), Maria Rosantina (d-associates) and Andy Rahman (Andy Rahman Architect). It refers to the condition of the last two years, where staying home and not being allowed to move around much made many of us think and seek what was essential in our lives. “In the world of architecture, we can see more similarities between projects. ‘Copy-paste’ happens and it makes us difficult to define the culture origin. The identity of architecture should represent specific thoughts of the people based on time and place,” Wendy Djuhara as one of the curators explained.

International Conference on Architecture

There will also be an International Conference on Architecture with sub-themes: Maritime+Technology and Social+Cultural. Professionals that will be the speakers:

· Wolfgang Kessling (Transsolar/Germany)

· Koen Olthuis (Waterstudio.NL/Netherlands)

· Hanif Kara (AKT II/United Kingdom)

· Bernard Khoury (DW5/Lebanon)

· Yori Antar (Han Awal & Partners/Indonesia)
