Indiscernible Elements: Calcium

Korynn Newville is an artist, designer, and environmental activist.

Korynn’s drawings and passion for the environment are the catalysts that lead to her writing. Her book, “Indiscernible Elements” derives from her architectural thesis work on how architecture needs to practice with living and dying and can no longer draw, design and think from only a human perspective. Which has been nominated for the Schiff Foundation Fellowship Award.

Korynn received her Masters of Architecture from The School of the Art

Institute of Chicago and her Bachelor of Design from the University of Minnesota. She is an architectural designer and spends her free time outdoors. She lives in the Teton Mountain Range with her partner and dog.

The practice of architecture needs to practice with living and dying. Architecture can be used as a way to build a less violent and a more flourishing multispecies world (Donna Haraway). Architects can no longer draw, design and think from only a human perspective. By creating stories, drawings and designs through alternative perspectives, it can expose new relationships and ideas to a changed world.
