THE FAB MIND: Hints of the Future in a Shifting World

活動のデザイン展

Design

“THE FAB MIND: Hints of the Future in a Shifting World” is an exhibition that goes beyond the framework of purely physical works, instead showcasing projects that attempt to decipher the challenges facing society from a design perspective and to find solutions. From a collection of over 500 sweaters made by an 81-year-old lady who has been knitting since the 1950s, to a landmine-detonating device inspired by memories of childhood, this exhibition features projects by 24 groups and individual creators from 11 countries around the world that promote awareness of the role of design in the future of society.

『活動のデザイン展』は、ものづくりの枠を超え、デザインの視点で社会が抱える課題を読み解き、問題を解決しようとする意志や活動を取り上げる展覧会です。81歳の女性が1950年代から編み続けてきた500枚を超えるセーターや、幼少期の記憶をインスピレーションとして開発された地雷撤去装置のデザインなど、世界11カ国•24組のクリエーターによる多彩な活動は、今後の社会におけるデザインの役割に多くの気づきをもたらすでしょう。
