Phoenix Indian School Park | Indigenous Redesign
Through frameworks of kinship, belonging + Indigenous sovereignty. Once a site of forced assimilation that fractured relational networks, the adaptive reuse landscapes are redesigned as a living memory. Using Indigenous methodologies—including listening-based site analysis, narrative mapping + storytelling — this work centers survivor testimonies + community voices to rebuild relational ties between land, history + people.
