A blank page is where the craft of design begins. Every page, spread, volume and book in “Master Pages” [“P\u00e1ginas Mestras” in the original Portuguese language] becomes a narrative that combines Typography, Illustration, Art Direction, Data Visualization, Visual Storytelling, and Cultural Heritage interpretations. These are the “master pages” where design narratives are brought to life, produced by students aspiring to the roles of design masters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Students examine statements from visual journeys that capture individual and collective regions that rescue and archive various interpretations of what might be considered cultural heritage through the pieces on display.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The first section of the exhibition features some of the work that students individually and in large groups developed within the first year of the study cycle’s curriculum units in collaboration with teachers. It highlights the potential and particularities of the master’s degree with the explicit goal of motivating, engaging, and communicating.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The stories that these books, journals, posters, and games are based on are examined in the works that are displayed in both sections. And alternatively, through other design objects or experiences, like interactive and digital interfaces; the merging of digital and analog media; the redesign of brands and their design methodology; the reformulation of cultural artifacts, narrative legacies, design education, and the corresponding instructional manuals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The exhibition’s main goal is to critically reinterpret modern graphic design artifacts to encourage deeper levels of thought than simple contemplation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Through typography, art, critical essays on ethnography, decolonizing, feminist studies, and visual storytelling, these pieces challenge viewers to investigate the world around them and build a bridge between the past and present.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
