Project Description
In 1965, the US Supreme Court delivered a landmark ruling acknowledging, for the first time, a constitutionally implied right to privacy in the case of Griswold v. Connecticut. The word privacy does not exist in the US Constitution and therefore continues to be juridically invented through case law. Following more recent SCOTUS rulings, the importance of state constitutions have come into focus. “Supreme Privacy, no. 30” is developing a body of research linking legal and architectural notions of privacy within the state of Wisconsin to respond to questions of bodily autonomy and agency in the built environment. The goal of this research is to better understand the real, “private” spaces where the events at the core of important cases took place, using spatial forensic research techniques, and digital and physical 3d-modeling to explore the architecture where the right to privacy in Wisconsin has been tested over the past century.
