Eva was part of the Science Track panel focused on the Non-Human, which interrogated how “architects
contribute to create an awareness to the needs of non-human actors not only on the level of the discipline´s
critical role in urban ecology, but also by including non-human´s subjectivities in the built environment.”
Under the title of “The architecture of (hu)man exceptionalism” Eva presented a synthesis of
visual material that ties together her work on multispecies habitats at her NYC-based practice
e+i studio, with the theoretical groundwork which is part of her Philosophical research andher
work as professor of Degree Project at Pratt SOA; all addressing the need to interrogate human
exceptionalist ways of intervening in the built environment and doing architecture.
