SUMMARY:Reclaiming Power and Ground: Two Projects in Urban Repair
DESCRIPTION:This talk brings together two projects that frame repair as a collective\, spatial\, and political act—across energy systems and the urban ground. Energies of Repair: Visualizing Community Power in NYC by Andrea Johnson and Ashley Dawson examines how grassroots coalitions are reshaping New York’s energy infrastructure\, using design and visual practice to make struggles for public power\, environmental justice\, and democratic control visible. DEPAVE: An Ecological Repair of the Ground by Friends Making Work (Christine Giorgio\, Amelyn Ng\, and Gabriel Vergara) explores depaving as a strategy of designed subtraction\, reimagining streets\, sidewalks\, and surplus pavement as sites for ecological resilience\, social repair\, and new forms of urban infrastructure. The projects will be on view at the Center for Architecture from May 7—September 2 as part of their Lab residency program\, which elevates underrepresented perspectives in architecture and design.\nIn partnership with AIA NY
