Miró Rivera Architects commissioned Belgian photographer Sebastian Schutyser to document their work using a pinhole camera (lensless wooden box with a small hole). This exhibition presents a selection of Schutyser's images in large format. While the artist has employed his method of “slow photography” to capture unique structures across the globe, these works represent his first foray into contemporary architecture.

About the Artist
Over the course of twenty years, Miró Rivera Architects has produced an innovative, refined, and imaginative body of work—both modern and respectful of time-honored building traditions—that embodies the particularities of place and blurs the line between art and architecture. The firm’s diverse practice weaves together a commitment to craftsmanship with a honed sense of materiality and space to create structures at once elegant, controlled, and pleasant to inhabit. Miró Rivera Architects has garnered over 100 design awards, including the AR Emerging Architecture Award; the Texas Architecture Firm Award; ArchDaily’s list of the “World’s Best Architects”; and 40 local, state and national awards from the American Institute of Architects. The firm has represented architecture from the United States at exhibitions across Europe, Asia, and Latin America; their work has been featured worldwide in numerous prestigious publications, including Architectural Digest, Architectural Record, and The New York Times. In 2020, the firm designed and published its first monograph, entitled "Miró Rivera Architects: Building a New Arcadia," through University of Texas Press.
Artist Statement
We view each project as a unique undertaking. Each work results from careful consideration of the particular requirements of the client, site and program. Woven into our diverse practice is a remarkable degree of craftsmanship, exacting proportions, and a refined sense of materials and details. A consistent emphasis on natural light, transparency, and clear architectural progressions builds strong connections between interior and exterior.
