          The talk “The Paradox of Belonging and the Fragility of Attachment” at the Old Carpet Factory on June 21, 2026 brought together photography, curatorial practice, and architecture in the discussion about individual and collective perceptions of belonging and how they are shaped through memory, spatial experiences, image-making, and the emotional landscapes we inhabit. The different disciplines reflect on the ways we construct, negotiate, and reimagine connections to objects, environments and people in an increasingly fluid world.
