Humility for Challenging Conventions with Jing Liu
Listen now
Description
This week our host Nurgul Yardim talks with Jing Liu, visiting her in their office in Brooklyn, New York.   Jing Liu has been practising for more than 15 years, working on a wide range of projects both in the US and abroad. A native of China, Jing Liu received her education in China, Japan, the United Kingdom, and New Orleans. Jing Liu co-founded SO-IL in 2008 with Florian Idenburg. Through building practice and interdisciplinary research projects, Jing has led SO–IL in the engagement with the socio-political issues of contemporary cities — in projects like the Artists Loft North Omaha and the Martin Luther King, Jr. Library in Cleveland. Jing leads all of the projects from concept to realization and considers carefully all aspects of design and construction — from the building’s presence in a community, down to the fasteners in a window. Her projects range from artistic collaborations with contemporary choreographers and visual artists to master plans and major public realm design. Tune in to hear Jing’s story!     Show links:   SO-IL website: http://so-il.org SO-IL insragram: https://www.instagram.com/solidobjectives/ Book “Solid Objectives: Order, Edge, Aura”: https://www.lars-mueller-publishers.com/solid-objectives
