AR Reads: Make do and mend

This episode features an essay by Carlos Quintáns called Make do and mend, published in AR December 2019/January 2020 issue on Preservation. The essay looks at how practices of persistent upkeep in Burkina Faso are themselves a piece of heritage that must be maintained. We’re revisiting this piece now as we publish our June issue on Waste where we confront the life cycles of materials, objects and spaces.
