From 31 October until 10 January, the BK Expo 'Marina Tabassum: Building with the Delta' will be on show in the Oostserre.
This BK Expo showcases the work of architect Marina Tabassum. The exhibition highlights her deep engagement with the environmental and social challenges of Bangladesh, where water, land, and architecture are in constant flux.
Exhibition opening
The opening of the exhibition will take place on 31 October at 17:00. The opening event will offer a first look at key projects from Tabassum’s career, including modular housing systems, civic monuments, and community-driven proposals that have made a lasting impact both in Bangladesh and internationally. Her architecture addresses the complex realities of climate change, displacement, and urbanization, while preserving local culture and traditional building practices.
Students, staff and externals are invited to this special occasion, which will open up further discussions on the role of architecture, and of Indigenous Intelligence(s), in tackling some of today’s urgencies.
BK Talks
On 26 November, the BK Talks 'In Conversation with Marina Tabassum' will be hosted as part of the celebration of the exhibition 'Marina Tabassum: Building with the Delta'.
