In 2019, the Danish Arts Foundation commissioned artist duo Gamborg & Magnussen for the Cabbage Patch - Denmark’s first official submission to the Chicago Architecture Biennial. 🥬
This year, Denmark once again has a participant in the Biennial, the project Soil Lab.
The project is led by a team of three architects, James Albert Martin, Eibhlín Ní Chathasaigh, and Anne Dorthe Vesterand, and one designer, Maria Bruun. It involves two main efforts: The making of structures out of bricks, rammed earth, and ceramic tiles; and the construction of spaces for communal gatherings.
