Forensic Architecture (UK)

Forensic Architecture is a research agency, based at Goldsmiths, University of London. Founded in 2010 by architect Eyal Weizman, the agency undertakes advanced spatial and media investigations into cases of human rights violations, with and on behalf of communities affected by political violence, human rights organisations, international prosecutors, environmental justice groups, and media organisations.

 

The team includes architects, software developers, filmmakers, investigative journalists, artists, scientists and lawyers who use photographs, videos, audio files and testimonies to reconstruct and analyse violent events. Forensic Architecture’s work has been exhibited in major cultural institutions around the world and was included in documenta 14 and the 2018 Turner Prize.
