Dr FELIPE LANUZA RILLING

Biography	I am an architect qualified in Chile, with experience in research, teaching and practice. My main areas of interest relate architectural humanities and design research in art and architecture, with a particular focus on discourses and experiences of absence in cities and landscapes. Based on experimental photography, I developed a form of representation -layering- to reflect on and bring about the affects of absence. Related areas of interest and expertise are the perception and memory of places, cultural and natural heritage, environmental humanities, and advanced recording technologies. I am currently preparing a research project to investigate the relations between memory, nature and the climate crisis in terrain vagues. I completed my PhD in Architectural Design at the Bartlett School of Architecture and a post-doctoral research residency at the UCL Urban Laboratory, which finalised with a solo exhibition at the Bartlett School of Architecture in October 2019. I am currently a Research Fellow at the University of Nottingham and a Studio Tutor in Architecture at the MA in Architectural Design (MAAD), University of Sheffield, where I also give lectures and supervise theses. I have disseminated my research through several conferences, publications, exhibitions, and through invited talks. My teaching experience, which spans 20 years, covers the design of the built environment at different scales (interiors, architecture, urban and landscape design) as well as architectural and urban history and theory. I am co-founder of DLA Scan / Devilat Lanuza Architectural Studio, and a member of Urban Transcripts and the Association of Critical Heritage Studies. * As a Research Fellow at the University of Nottingham , in the Architecture, Culture and Tectonics Research Group, I am involved in the following projects: Co-Investigator at the project “Applicability and scalability of a sustainable re-construction framework for seismic-prone heritage areas of Gujarat, India” aka. “3D for Heritage India” (Phase 3). Funding: AHRC / DCMS https://3d4heritageindia.com (02/2023 - 01/2024). Research Fellow at the project: “Documenting the Churches of Chiloé: recording as a knowledge transfer for conservation”. Funding: EWAP / Oxford Brookes University (10/2022 – 09/2024).
