An online hybrid closing activity of the Philippine Pavilion and Open Collectives at the 17th International Architecture Exhibition of La Biennale di Venezia. This virtual gathering celebrates the Philippine Pavilion’s Structures of Mutual Support and the Open Collectives’ Architecture for an Equitable Digital Economy. In both installations in the Arsenale, film, architectural installations, and texts explore the relationship between the solidarity economy, art, and architecture. On the one hand, art and architecture forge new cultural imaginaries, vocabularies, and civic structures to enable mutualist groups to flourish and gain visibility. On the other hand, the co-creative process galvanizes its participants, inciting new imaginative futures. This activity brings together leading thinkers and practitioners whose international perspectives bring the intersection between art, architecture, and mutualism to the fore.
