A collaborative digital space, this archive showcases cultural public interventions across the world.
As communities grapple with solutions to wicked problems, the places that people inhabit are in constant revision and reconstruction. The connection between culture and
place is one that has been examined via several theoretical lenses in myriad disciplines in the Humanities and the Social Sciences by theorists such as:
Jane Jacobs, Pierre Nora, Judith Butler, Henry Lefebvre, Homi Bhabha and more.

Seville Cathedral and Giralda
"The Giralda is the bell tower of Seville Cathedral and a symbol of the city. Measuring over 100m in height, it is by far the tallest structure in the Seville’s old town. In addition, its mixture of Moorish and Renaissance architecture is a visual representation of the city’s long and fascinating history." - https://www.espanaguide.com/seville/cathedral/giralda/ https://www.historyhit.com/locations/la-giralda/
