In this episode, we introduce Gabriella Okeno, one of the founders of Archtivate Africa—an initiative dedicated to showcasing African architecture, with a particular focus on its vernacular expressions. Her organization aims to visually represent vernacular architecture, particularly from pre-colonial Africa, through the integration of AI technology and various tools. Gabriella's passion for rural landscapes, coupled with her fascination with the dynamics of rural-urban migration, has guided her on this journey. She advocates for a forward-looking approach that involves reconsidering elements that may have been overlooked due to the erosion of cultural practices. This is the 31st episode under the ‘Shifting Narratives’ program supported by the British Council SSA Arts. *For the best experience, please use a headset/earphones.
