Anne Romme, Jacob Bang - Ø / Island

Architects, writers, and artists have always dreamed of islands, using them as inspirational material for imagining new futures. Islands are also proposed as solutions to today’s challenges, as clean beginnings. The project by Anne Romme and Jacob Bang adds to this discourse and suggests developing sustainable ways of inhabiting the spaces of oceans, seas, and harbours. Combining digital fabrication with material craft, it is an artistic symbiosis between additive and subtractive logics, between solid casts and perforated structures, in search of models for how architecture and urban developments can grow organically, are in continuous flux, and allow for plural voices.
