I Wish You Water

Installation, Essay, Audio
2024
Read more... “I Wish You Water” features a gathering of objects intricately woven within ropes, inviting viewers to navigate this organic choreography in the space, as though embodying the meandering journey of a body of water. 
            
Exploring contemporary water rituals, the project aims to deepen the understanding and rekindle connections between humanity and nature, emphasizing kinship occurring among them. It suggests that healing our relationship with water begins by listening to what it has to recount. 

Inspired by writer Masaru Emoto’s The Hidden Messages in Water and the notion of satori—a state of profound presence in Japanese Buddhism—the installation’s simplicity encourages introspection and tranquility. This poetic endeavor invites exploration of the imagination, invoking water as a means to nurture emotions, and foster deep gratitude for the wonders of the Earth.

BookLab 

Poster Design & Talk
2024
Residents of Fabrica Research Centre discuss Afonso de Matos' book Who Can Afford to Be Critical? The book's campaign explores how issues of affordability, class, and labor are often overlooked in design discourse. By questioning "Critical Design," it challenges designers to reflect on their positioning within complex social theories and the balance of awareness in their work. The metaphorical placement of a comma symbolizes the ongoing dialogue about where designers stand in relation to critical and political issues.
