Local Architecture Now- with Afdel Aziz discusses his groundbreaking documentary 'The Genius of the Place'
Update: 2024-09-01
Description
Afdel Aziz (The Conspiracy of Love) discusses his groundbreaking documentary ‘The Genius of the Place'. This is an extraordinarily beautiful film, introducing us to Geoffery Bawa and his architecture in Sri Lanka. Bawa (1919 – 2003), recognised as one of the influential architects of the twentieth century, devoted his work to a discovery of a contemporary Sri Lankan sense of place. Afdel’s interview reveals the importance of the film as a story of Bawa’s life and work within the utterly beautiful Sri Lankan geography, Bawa’s beloved place. Afdel enchanted his film with special interviews among the talented Sri Lankan architects, artists, and craftspeople with whom Bawa collaborated, to bring forward his formative expression of a de-colonised Sri Lankan architecture.
