Public Projections of the Living Architecture Systems Group

The research project bridges across international architectural exhibitions using nextgeneration dissemination venues, including online and physical screenings. The project includes the immersive architectural environment Grove and its associated CGI film Grove Cradle. The film was created for the 17th Venice Biennale of Architecture as a collaboration between Professor Philip Beesley of Canada, Warren Du Preez and Nick Thornton Jones of the United Kingdom, and Salvador Breed of the Netherlands. Grove Cradle was projected within an immersive sculpture environment in Venice for a largely academic audience. This research project will “bring home” Grove Cradle in one or more extensions of its initial projections, including a large-scale major public venue in Toronto, Canada, taking on new meaning for the local community and providing new public context.
