"Eduardo Aquino and Karen Shanski are partners in spmb [São Paulo-Manitoba], BLDG architecture office, and professors at the Faculty of Architecture, University of Manitoba (Winnipeg). Created in 1998 as a collaborative practice in art, architecture, and design, spmb questions disciplinary traditions through strategies that include design, research, teaching, projects in urban spaces, publishing, and any other means to instigate the public realm. spmb searches for situations where architecture presents itself as an ongoing process of unfolding -- where scale, context and materiality are dealt broadly to respond specifically to each found situation. spmb is committed to creating a new understanding of the practice of art/architecture, at once technologically adventurous, politically critical, and socially responsible. As a hybrid collaboration, spmb seeks to subvert the instrumental view of architecture and the disciplinary categorization of art."--Plug In Editions website.
