Erzë Dinarama

Erzë Dinarama is an architect, artist, and researcher working across spatial practice, critical environmental research, and critical technology studies. Through installations, fieldwork, and research, she explores new forms of ecological knowledge grounded in uncertainty, relationality, and more-than-human perspectives, working between art and science.

Approaching aesthetics as a mode of knowledge production, she develops spatial installations as research devices and counter devices. Her work is characterized by an aesthetic of plurality, assembling layered and polyphonic forms in which different species, systems, and temporalities coexist without being fully reduced to one another. Through this approach, her practice engages conditions of environmental complexity, including disturbance, rupture, thresholds, uncertainty, unpredictability, asymmetry, and non-linear temporalities.

She has taught at Politecnico di Milano, ETH Zurich, and Politecnico di Torino, and has collaborated with design practices and cultural institutions including Carlo Ratti Associati, Studio Olafur Eliasson, and the Manifesta Foundation. Erzë studied architecture, urbanism, and landscape at Politecnico di Milano, UC Berkeley, and ETH Zurich.

Most recently, she represented Kosovo at the 19th International Architecture Exhibition of La Biennale di Venezia as exhibitor and curator, presenting a sensorial installation staging moments of climatic rupture in Kosovo through smell, as crops fail, seasonal cues shift, and embodied knowledge systems are disrupted. Her work has been presented internationally in exhibitions, lectures, and academic contexts.
