Secret Architecture: the process of process
Stillness is a myth.We are in constant rotation, constant orbit, we migrate and shift as individuals from room to room, house to job, country to country - birth to death. As we try to answer the unanswerable, we create our own processes of thought and action. If we break ourselves open, we may find inner structures created from remnants of the many who have come before us. Secret Architecture: the process of process operates from this place. Season one explores art and culture as invisible and benevolent dictators - as banners that announce our histories. Through dynamic conversations with artists of all kinds, to direct our attention to who we are, we navigate the infinite mysteries of liminal space.

It's said that imitation can be deemed a form of flattery, yet when does it cross the line and begin to intrude upon cultural history and identity? CiCi Kelley and Dr. Theresa Howard join me to discuss the ways history, experience – and blood, unite cultures in ways that can only be understood by its descendants. Amidst the openness each provide into their own experiences, they likewise celebrate the act of sharing, which can transcend time, space and lineage - without misappropriating.
