A talk on my personal experience as an architect working, living and researching between the Mediterranean Sea, the Atlantic Ocean and the Sahara Sea. It took place at Smith College, Art Department, invited by Elisa Kim from ARS 380 Architectural Design Studio. It was an activity developed in the framework of the scholarly convening on Younès Rahmoun's work organised by Emma Chubb, from The Smith College Museum of Art, with the collaboration of the Kahn Liberal Arts Institut and the support of the Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts.
