How Architecture Can Tell the Stories We’ve Tried to Forget

Archinect's Fellow Fellows series showcases individuals who are currently in, or have recently finished, an architecture fellowship. During our conversations, we discuss their architectural journey, areas of research, and their overall experience as academic fellows. For our latest interview, we connected with Christina Chi Zhang, the 2023–24 Harry der Boghosian Fellow at Syracuse University School of Architecture. Zhang shares her experiences navigating the intersections of architecture, storytelling, and social justice, her approach to teaching and research, and the inspiration behind her fellowship exhibition, I found within me an invincible summer.
