Emerging Architecture Writers 2021

Following an open call for current third level students and recent graduates, twenty eager individuals were selected to take part in our writing programme, working with acclaimed international architecture critics including Shane O’Toole (IRE) and Mimi Zeiger (USA), as well as Michael Hayes (Editor, Architecture Ireland).

Owing to the success of and response to the EAW programme in 2021, we aim to continue this programme biannually, alongside future iterations of Momentum.

Three candidates were offered a paid opportunity to respond directly to the exhibition. The following texts are the result of this commission.
