As the Douglas A. Garofalo Fellow from the University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC) School of Architecture, Johannes Berry presents a reading, projection, and musical performance by Alex Wing (Thereminist), Camus (Howler), and Julian Otis (Tenor).

At once an observation, celebration, and proposal, the performance considers the potential of apophenia (the experience of seeing patterns or connections in random or meaningless data), as an origin, catalyst, and monument of human achievement.

Johannes Berry is a South African architect based in Brussels. He studied fashion design in Cape Town before obtaining a BA in architecture from the University of Hasselt and an MSc in architecture from the KU Leuven in Belgium, where he has been teaching since 2015. In 2016 he founded SUGIBERRY with Mayu Takasugi. Based in Brussels and Tokyo, SUGIBERRY has been recognized in both Belgium and Japan through prizes, exhibitions, and awards and has ongoing projects in Japan, Belgium, and South Africa. In 2018 he founded the architectural magazine Gallery Magazine with Jonathan R. Maj. He is the current Douglas A. Garofalo Fellow at the University of Illinois at Chicago.

About the Douglas A. Garofalo Fellowship

Named in honor of architect and educator Doug Garofalo (1958–2011), this nine-month teaching fellowship—supported with a grant from the Graham Foundation—provides emerging designers the opportunity to teach studio and seminar courses in the undergraduate and graduate programs and conduct independent design research. The fellowship also includes a public lecture at the Graham Foundation and an exhibition at the UIC School of Architecture. To learn more about the fellowship, click here.
