tkaronto!!! (Also known as Toronto) Meaning "where there are trees standing in the water” in the language of the Mohawk. . Today glass and steel towers stand in concrete foundations, covering over unceded land. And at the heart of this now financialised territory what else but the Dominion Centre, designed by who else but one of modernism’s greatest architects, Mies van der Rohe. A fine ‘expression of the inner structure of our times’ and capital’s dominion. . . #Tkaronto #toronto #architecture #modernism #city #modernist #cityscape #mohawk #tower #skyscraper #capitalism #mies #architect #canada #finance #trees #nature #glass #steel #concrete #dominion #dominioncentre #alienpossession #alienflow #ontario #america #urbanisation #urban #landscape #photography (at Financial District, Toronto) https://www.instagram.com/p/B6FvrHKlHma/?igshid=l9ep2uidg7gt

Delighted to be in #Montreal exploring the @canadiancentreforarchitecture with my fellow CCA-Mellon researchers for the project #CentringAfrica! What would a history of architecture look like if we centred Africa? #montreal #canada #african #architecture #archive #AndrewMellon #Mellon #research #history #heritage https://www.instagram.com/p/B58ySPxls1g/?igshid=1gnrwuy2decx4
