The Domestication of Marble
- 13:19• Drama and Athens, Greece • Massachusetts Instite of Technology • Supervisor: Huma Gupta
- Supported by AKPIA at MIT
- As the world becomes increasingly automated, the architectural industry follows suit,
- leading us to completely defamiliarize ourselves with not only the source of our
- materials - but also the labor and energy they hold. Set in the cities
- of Drama and Athens in Greece, this film contrasts fast-paced, violent methods
- of extraction and manufacturing marble with slower ancient practices.
