(Canadian Premiere) A slab of marble is the unlikely protagonist of Veins, which follows the remarkable journey of 30,000 tons of marble from a Portuguese quarry to the façade of a new arts center in New York City. Highlighting the human and industrial processes across various geographies, it investigates the interconnected elements, including socio-political contexts and environmental questions, that shape architectural creation. The film invites viewers to reflect on the transformative journey from a raw, anonymous block to a meticulously crafted building designed by Joshua Ramus, Founding Principal of REX.
