Decolonising Architecture

The RIBA

Decolonising Architecture is a powerful and poetic film that follows architect, artist, and educator Giles Tettey Nartey as he reflects on his artwork Assembly. Assembly invited visitors and groups to engage and question the meaning behind the images displayed within the Dominion Screen at the 66 Portland place, home of the Royal Institute of British Architects.

This critical and creative intervention challenges the colonial legacies embedded within our cities by providing new ways to read and interpret these histories. His work invites viewers to think more broadly about the themes used to describe and represent culture and architecture.
