Design Objects in a Time of Crisis

7 Jun 2023 13:00 - 14:00 The Screening Room

What value does a window, a pot or a chair have to us? When we’re not amidst physical crisis or emotional upheaval, we may never realise the meaning and value of such everyday objects, and how they can become personal lifelines and symbols of resistance and solidarity. This panel will deliberate the changing resonance of everyday objects during times of crisis and whether learnings from design responses to crisis can be reapplied during times of safety.

Deliberate the changing resonance of everyday objects during times of crisis and whether the learnings from design responses to crisis can be sustainably transferred and reapplied during times of safety.

Speakers:

  • Zofia Jaworowska, co-curator of the Poland pavilion

  • Valentyna Vasylieva, co-designer of the Ukraine pavilion
