Dominican Studies Association – CONEXIÓN Oral History Project – Biennale di Venezia 2021

This recent DSA oral history project has brought together current and past board members of the Dominican Studies Association (DSA). 

Members of the Dominican Studies Association (DSA) collaborated with the CONEXIÓN Dominican Republic proposal for the 17th La Biennale di Venezia 2021. This year’s 17th International Architecture Exhibition, titled “How will we live together,” is curated by Hashim Sarkis. 
In keeping with the biennale’s theme, members of the DSA board aim to answer one question: how will we live together? / ¿cómo viviremos juntos? As immigrants or first/second generation Dominicans in the United States, DSA board members engage in dialogue about inclusion/exclusion in spaces on the island or their host/home country. Board members reflect upon their personal and professional experiences, where they discuss inclusive spaces and how these might be expanded.
