WIDE LOAD [ BRED LAST ] A House MovedTonia Carless Robin Serjeant paula roushJames Benedict Brown Matthew HynamThe book is a photographic archive and text of a house move in Northern Sweden. It considers the historic, cultural, technical and material significance of wholesale house moving (husflyttningar) in the region, through a single, historic house move in Umeå, 2021. The main frame of analysis is the spatial politics of un-building. It is an investigation of the vernacular mobility of shifting built and occupied forms in relation to ahistoric and future context of urban reconfiguration, a proposed architecture of de-growth in Northern Sweden. The visual work explores context through the form of the book itself. It is also a potential model that constructs and translates analysis of the space. It is a collaborative architectural work to document the house move and other spatial productions, models, drawings and collage of the space beneath and between the ground and house, image projections, exhibitions and events, as public exchange.Paperback edition for the opening of Smedjan UmArtsUmeå University SwedenJune 16 &17 2023Funded by UmArts A Small Visionary Project Award
