day 2 – part 2: A quiet afternoon didn’t lead to much but I began to get a sense of the subleties of the space.
Enjoyed an engaging converstaion with Liz Whitehead, co-director of Fabrica, weighing up the difficulties and opportunites of working in buildings that are rich with history and religion; the intimate and comforting scale of some churches and the sense of the overwhelming architecture of others.
Perhaps more sigificantly, we discussed the value of being terrified, how fear generates an energy which forces the individual to act, sometimes rashly, in order to make something happen !
