Fall 2022 seminar: B.Arch. candidate, architecture
Valerie Vilanova is a fourth-year B.Arch. student from Caracas, Venezuela. She previously studied at the School of Architecture at Syracuse University where she engaged with the Diversity Equity and Inclusion Committee and the Reuse & Recycle Subcommittee. As she now proceeds to complete her undergraduate career at Cornell AAP with an unbounded spirit of experimentation, her works juxtapose the discipline's history and tradition as poetic, rule-based practice with modern-day controversies. By conjugating dichotomies, her work sets the stage for debate to expose the sensibilities that populate the built environment and question the possibilities and drawbacks that infrastructures project into the future.
