Psychostructures is a conceptual art project and research initiative that seeks to understand and enhance our collective relationship with architecture. Bringing together psychology, psycho-social studies, architecture and art, we have developed innovative transdisciplinary techniques that explore the psychology of buildings and the communities of users they serve. Architecture is entangled with bodies, objects and systems. Through understanding the dynamics of these interrelations and the psychology that informs them, we can sustain architecture’s functionality and enhance the quality of the architectural environment for its inhabitants.
The project is based on inter-disciplinary research between architectural academic/practitioner A/Prof Jonathan Mosley, psychology academic Dr. Lita Crociani-Windland (UWE-HAS), psychoanalytic therapist Dr. Nigel Williams and conceptual artist Sophie Warren (independent) to explore buildings as psychological subjects.
