Unbroken: Fragility, Body, Architecture

The publication Unbroken: Fragility, Body, Architecture was presented within the GENS Public Programme during the final days of the 19th International Architecture Exhibition, La Biennale di Venezia. The curatorial team for the event and print publication was Iryna Miroshnykova, Maria Noschenko, Sonya Kvasha, and Oleksii Petrov.

The publication featured a conversation between Nazar Bagnyuk and Mark Wasiuta, paired with a new visual essay by Elena Subach and Viacheslav Poliakov, documenting three days inside the Laboratory of Walking, where engineers, rehabilitation specialists, psychologists, and patients worked together to produce new steps.

The panel discussion, which was held as part of the event and accompanied by the publication, was moderated by Mark Wasiuta. It explored notions of artificiality, techne, mimicry, and design, examining the relationship between body and city across both micro and macro scales. The discussion featured Anton Kolomeitsev, David Serlin, and Nazar Bagnyuk.

Implemented in cooperation with the UNBROKEN National Rehabilitation Center and Lviv City Council.
