Abstract:
The presentation introduces a posthumanist framework for understanding architecture as a relational practice embedded within networks of interdependence among humans, non-human actors, materials, and socio-ecological systems. Within these networks, flows of care, resources, and labour shape spatial configurations and transform accommodation practices. The research focuses on the region of Thessaly, approaching the landscape through the agencies of its water bodies.
