Studio 10
be here, like everyday
Marijke Davey
Studio Description
I do not feel like talking or thinking about this.
how nice, to have the choice,
to allow mind to shut something off,
to ‘not think about this’.
from afar, they reassure.
they ask about home, about children,
about their favorite classes, about
work, about food, about health,
about money.
is there anything you need ?
the questions we ask back, deferred,
or offers of help, not needed.
How do people stay together ?
In one piece,
one piece.
What does it mean to look from afar? How do we measure distance between our places? We watch the news, we read an article, we listen to a podcast, relying on imagination, placing ourselves in place, two squares to the left, then one up.
be here, like everyday is the next in series of studios that look at beautiful Palestine. We will spend the semester exploring Palestine together, following words, roads, poems, posts, learning from a place that has so much to share.
Studio Outcomes
The studio asks for rigorous, thoughtful, and self-directed research. You will have high expectations placed upon you, but with this, you will be supported, listened to, and given the time and space to develop your thoughts about architecture. The studio relies on class discussions, requiring you to listen to your classmates, to guests, to develop opinions, critiques, yourself.
Throughout the semester, you will develop your own brief, you will make many maps, you will write, you will draw faces, you will have many questions, you will want to talk about Palestine to anyone who will give you a moment to speak. You will learn to listen.
Studio Leader
Marijke is an Architect. She cares about pigeons, public space, and Palestine.
