For the first time, LIGA presents the work of a Cuban architecture firm: Infraestudio. The studio, led by Anadis González and Fernando Martirena, addresses various conflicts and challenges in its daily practice, including job insecurity in a context where private architecture is illegal. Despite this obstacle, they have managed to develop a provocative body of built work that they intertwine with proposals linked to artistic practices.

Participating institutions: Faculty of Architecture, UNAM; Faculty of Architecture and Urbanism of the University of Cuenca, Ecuador; Department of Humanities and Communication of the Catholic University of Uruguay; and the Franz Mayer Museum in the Historic Center of Mexico City. The international workshop is coordinated by academics Guillermina Rosas López, Geraldine Rodríguez Cárdenas, and Brenda Pérez González.
