Hosted by the research project 'Sucking Salt' and supported by 'revisions', this exhibition hopes to nurture discourse around architectures of the Caribbean. From the Bahamas to Trinidad and Tobago, the expanse of its contents consider some of the built heritages of the Caribbean’s particular material, social, and political landscapes across various scales of thinking. Working through and with the concept of architectures, “Modeling Ecologies: Take Care” poses the built environment as an ​​infrastructure for social relations that is inextricable from its ecological context. Acknowledging the archive as but one expression of an otherwise inexpressible past, architectures in the plural also helps us to reflect on Architecture itself as a set of relationships between socialities, landscapes, and ecosystems. This exhibition contains a wallpaper installation alongside a library of referential texts from Sucking Salt, sculptures commissioned for the occasion by Ibiyanε and Gwladys Gambie, and a film by Deborah Anzinger.⁠

In accompaniment, Sucking Salt’s zine Take Care and Vol. 1 of revisions are available for purchase.
