Debra Solomon

Debra SOLOMON is an artist-infrastructure activist, whose work concerns the public space. She is a PhD candidate in the University of Amsterdam’s department of Urban Planning and is founder of Urbaniahoeve. Since 2010, Urbaniahoeve’s critical spatial practice is driven by reciprocal, interspecies care relations and biodiversity defragmentation and the application of living soils and public space food forest expertise. One current project is the 56HA Amsterdam Zuidoost Urban Food Forest, (VBAZO) in the public space of Amsterdam Zuidoost. VBAZO is produced by the Urbaniahoeve collective (Debra Solomon and Renate Nollen) with local human and more-than-human communities and was presented in the Dutch Pavilion at the 2021 Venice Architecture Biennial.
