Hosted by SCI-Arc History + Theory coordinator Marrikka Trotter, this episode of the Arc is about embodiment. We hear from artist Young Joon Kwak, whose work focuses on queer bodies, how they have been represented in art history, and how they form communities. Then, speculative architect and SCI-Arc faculty member Jennifer Chen talks about world-building and how design can flesh fictions into alternative realities. Finally, Dr. Sunita Puri speaks on dying, the unknowability of the universe, and the different ways of being embodied within it.

Casual, unscripted, and intimate, The Arc episodes present themed discussions that investigate existing contemporary ideas and attitudes around architecture, juxtaposing them with disciplines and topics outside of architecture. 
The Arc is a venue for conversation, recorded at the Southern California Institute of Architecture (SCI-Arc) in Los Angeles, and led by SCI-Arc faculty and History + Theory Coordinator Marrikka Trotter.
