Film and architecture are interwoven art forms, united by their shared articulation of lived space and temporality. The Geoffrey Bawa Trust’s new curated screening project, “Sculpted Time: An Architecture-Focused Film Series,” emphasises architecture and built environments as dimensional characters in their own right rather than mere onscreen backdrops. Selected films will span countries and genres, using narrative and montage to unveil multiple layers of meaning inherent in spatial structure.

Join us for the first instalment of this series, a screening of “Bawa’s Garden,” by Clara Kraft Isono, on 30th January.

"Bawa’s Garden" is a meditative exploration of the life and work of Geoffrey Bawa, directed by Clara Kraft Isono. The film’s narrator travels across Sri Lanka, interviewing Bawa’s friends and colleagues, collecting anecdotes and insights, revealing a philosophy which extends far beyond the craft of architecture.
Clara Kraft Isono is an architect, filmmaker and academic. She established Kraft Isono, a multidisciplinary film and architecture studio in 2013.
