The Art of Heritage by Farouk Noormohamed
From monuments and legislatures to places of worship, how we remember the past and make it our own can stir strong emotions. After all, memory shapes the ways in which we belong, whether to local, national or indeed global communities.
In this third in our conversations at the interface of "Citizenship, Religion and Identity," architect Farouk Noormohamed engages with how tradition and modernity form our built environment, with our changing place in it.
