Giulia Fagundes is a designer, artist and independent researcher, a master’s degree in Design. Her practice articulates graphic design, contemporary art and critical research, investigating the relationships between image, memory, territory and the production of knowledge. From a decolonial perspective, she questions the systems of representation and legitimation that determine which narratives and knowledges are recognized. She is the creator of Menos Design, Por Favor, an itinerant workshop held in cities such as São Paulo, Salvador, Belém, Barcelona, New York and Lima, which proposes the observation of everyday life and artistic experimentation as ways to question the homogenization of references and build collective knowledge.

Lina Sofía Córdoba is a Colombian designer and audiovisual creator based in Barcelona. Her practice combines research, audiovisual means and material experimentation to explore identity, migration, decolonization and the relationships between humans and non-humans.
