Redesigning the designer | Studio Cecilia Casabona

Cecilia Casabona will participate in a three-month curatorial residency in Oaxaca, Mexico, where she will conduct research and collaborate with exhibition space La Clinica. This residency will result in an exhibition at La Clinica, presenting work by six Mexican designers selected through an open call. The exhibited designs stem from a collaborative approach that revolves around redefining the role of the designer (Redesigning the designer). The works challenge traditional notions of what a design object is, and its relationship to history and heritage, especially when shown outside a Western context.
