In recent years and through several ongoing caseworks, Forensic Architecture’s Centre for Contemporary Nature has developed new evidentiary techniques and methods for bringing accountability to casualties and destructions caused by fires. Moving from the domestic scale of the home to the territorial scale of the plantation, this talk sets out a framework of pyro-forensics whereby fire is investigated in its entanglement with colonial, military, and corporate forms of violence.
