Ersela Kripa, RA, FAAR
Founding Partner of AGENCY Architecture, Assistant Professor College of Architecture Texas Tech University El Paso
Ersela Kripa is an Assistant Professor and Acting Director at Texas Tech College of Architecture (CoA) – El Paso, and Director of Projects at POST (Project for Operative Spatial Technologies), a CoA research center. Ersela is a registered architect and founding partner of AGENCY. Her awards include the Rome Prize in Architecture and the Emerging Voices award from The Architectural League of New York, among others. AGENCY is a design/research practice that leverages spatial design and information to counteract nascent forms of global and urban insecurity. From the practice’s position on the US–Mexico border, AGENCY’s work reveals emerging publics. Kripa’s recent book "FRONTS: Military Urbanisms and the Developing World" (AR+D, 2020), co-authored with Stephen Mueller, compiles urban research and analysis, revealing the growing geography of codependence between the global security complex and the urban morphologies of the developing world which it increasingly incriminates.
