Zōon Politikon

Zōon Politikon is a joint exhibition by Auckland University of Technology, New Zealand and The University of Sydney, Australia comprising a series of architectural models of a speculative nature that take their bearings from the last lectures given by the late French philosopher, Jacques Derrida.

Zōon Politikon sits within a larger exhibition - TIME - SPACE - EXISTENCE - at the Venice Architecture Biennale, 2017 and calls into question the anthropocentric legacies installed into the essential grounding of architecture as production that privileges the human as rational animal.

This App explores the exhibition in more detail and allows the viewer to gain insight into the thought process of the student designers whose work is exhibited.
