On a Counter-monument in London / Elliot Nash
Manage episode 313475760 series 3272996
“I started to design things that might catch passersby or the weather, the things that aren't normally remembered...”
The act of building a counter-monument is an oxymoron in itself. Artists and architects around the world have used voids to create these counter-monuments while challenging the notion of physically building spaces to retain public memory. Elliot Nash’s project 'Forgetting Whitehall; Casting Blackhall' subverts traditional methods of physical and non-physical preservation while navigating through the themes of redaction and transience.
Elliot is a recent MArch graduate from The Bartlett, UCL. His work there focuses on alternative definitions of heritage in London, and poetic methods of construction. His latest project 'Blackhall' proposes a counter-monument for London through various material histories. Elliot also teaches at The Bartlett, and leads Open City’s Accelerate programme, which aims to diversify the built environment industry.
