Project Lead: Beth Weinstein, PhD RA
Beth Weinstein's research and practice move between architectural, spatial, performative, and choreographic methods to examine (dis)appearances and (in)visibilities, particularly related to climate catastrophe, states of exception and labor. Re-Membering the CIV builds upon her practice-based doctoral research—Performing Spatial Labor: rendering sensible (in)visibilities around architecture of internment (2020). She has synthesized over a decade of research into a book titled Architecture + Choreography: Collaborations in Dance, Space and Time (Routledge, 2024). Beth is an architect and Associate Professor at the University of Arizona.
