Alliance of the Southern Triangle (A.S.T.) was established in 2015 and consists of four regular members, (Diann Bauer, Felice Grodin, Patricia Margarita Hernandez, Elite Kedan), involved in the fields of art, architecture and urban design. A.S.T. began as a research project in 2015 focusing on the idea of the global city with a focus on Miami as case study. The project is committed to the idea that developmental trajectories of a city can be altered through the adaptation of the networks that already control it, paired with creative rethinking of what a city can be. A.S.T. uses the interdisciplinary space of art to function as a platform upon which to conceive of these possible futures that are both reactive and propositional with regard to the shifting set of legal, economic, cultural and environmental forces that confront us.
