Knowlton Landscape faculty Halina Steiner, Tameka Baba, Forbes Lipschitz (and Iowa State Assistant Professor of Architecture Shelby Doyle) will be featured as part of Exhibit Columbus’s two-day event, “Activations in Place,” occurring in downtown Columbus, Indiana focusing on the work of the seven teams awarded 2023 Exhibit Columbus University Design Research Fellowships.

Steiner, Baba, Lipschitz, and Doyle’s exhibit, PIPE UP!, will be hosted at the Hotel Indigo Columbus Architectural Center. The project is made up of a standing field of 150 Charlotte Pipes, rain clouds made of flagging tape, and poufs representing toxic sediment, and “makes visible the subterranean water infrastructure of urban development and agricultural production, telling a visual, kinesthetic story about altered hydrologies.”

The free public event was created in partnership with the Landmark Columbus Foundation, Indiana Communities Institute, and Indiana University’s Center for Cultural Affairs and is intended to highlight the fellows’ work and the expertise of nationally recognized experts.
