Description
Phineas Harper develops cultural programmes that engage broad audiences with architecture and design. A regular contributor to The Guardian and former Chief Executive of Open City, their career spans criticism, curation, education, youth engagement, journalism and sculpture. "I see my work as always having an eye on some other change that is about making a better built environment […] and that’s why I admire architects so much, because they have the patience and the care to see a project through. I think there’s a lot the we in the critical, curatorial, discursive world have to learn from architects in that regard.” Phin's exhibition "Cascades" is on now until 1 June at San Mei Gallery Scaffold is an Architecture Foundation production, hosted by Matthew Blunderfield.  Download the London Architecture Guide App via the App Store or Google Play Hosted on Acast.
