When We Gather: Discussion with Mira Henry and Matthew Au @ Art + Practice

In Conversation: Mira Henry and Matthew Au @ Art + Practice

Mira Henry and Matthew Au of Current Interests, an LA-based architectural design studio, will discuss their recent book, Gathering: Ongoing Work by Current Interests. Presented in conjunction with, this talk will reflect on Current Interests’s past projects and explore the historical, archaeological, and material layers of the built environment.

For this event Henry and Au will share a collection of close readings of existing buildings and infrastructure in the Leimert Park and Jefferson Park neighborhoods. The focus will be on a set of micro histories that surround two local Paul R Williams buildings – one a bank, and the other a church. Delivered as a visual narrative, this performance-based talk offers informal methods for attending to place and collecting stories within the context of the everyday.
