Hill Station – 4 September – 16 November
Hill Station is a free display curated by the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA), exploring the complex connections between architecture, colonialism and health segregation.
Combining architectural model work and film, this display revisits an expedition from the Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine to Freetown, Sierra Leone in 1899, which investigated the prevention of malaria. The research led to the creation of Hill Station, a racially segregated settlement, built above the city and designed to house 'Europeans only'.
Hill Station explores the histories shared by two port cities, Liverpool and Freetown and the enduring impact of health segregation on colonial planning. This display is part of the wider research project Salone Drift.
