Transformation: From Seed Form to Ceramics

Canan Salman

WORKSHOP
MAY 7TH, 9AM
ROOM 11 EP.1

This workshop aims to create ceramic tiles inspired by the forms and textures of seeds while adhering to biophilic design principles, enabling students to create visually appealing and environmentally friendly products. Exploring a variety of seed types, shapes, textures and patterns, students will focus on how elements from nature can be incorporated into man-made environments to enhance well-being through biophilic design principles. They will consider how seed forms can be transformed into ceramic tile designs while retaining their essence and connection to nature. Students explore potential patterns and arrangements inspired by natural seed distributions. The recognisable characteristics of the seed forms are retained and stylised.

Atlas is an artistic lab exploring the interactions in between nature and creativity, it is an independent studio running a studio residency. Atlas residency is an opportunity for international artists to experience the countryside within close reach to Lisbon, for one to three months. This new residency space emerges from the already established Euroatlas studio residency based in Lisbon, from a need to reconnect with ways of living and creating that are in touch with the environment.
The space is located in the village Carvalhal of the Bombarral Municipality, next to the vibrant and historical town of Caldas da Rainha. The Atlas residency is an independent artist space, with an independent focused program opened for emerging and established artists that are looking for a place of reflection away from their usual environment and that are self-sufficient in their research.

Water architecture, ways of existing and imagining

Andreia Garcia

CONFERENCE
MAY 7TH, 10AM
AUDITORIUM EP.1

Water is an endless matter that carries with it a multiplicity of imaginaries, uses and questions. As we know, it is also a symbol of controversial issues and conflicts, which trigger very different political, social, technological and cultural contexts. If today we face the dilemmas of framing abundance and scarcity, it will be from various hydrogeographies and disciplinary intersections that this lecture will be structured. Based on some experiences, propositional models and thought processes arising from the production of knowledge developed as part of the Portuguese Official Representation at the 18th International Architecture Exhibition, La Biennale di Venezia 2023 – Fertile Futures, this lecture will essentially talk about asymmetry, power, identity, community, sharing and the future.

PORCH ROOM 15 EP.1

A casting workshop with the aim of getting students acquainted with the technology and making small aluminium objects using simple, straightforward sand moulds. The aim is to develop models in a simple and intuitive way without resorting to preliminary drawings, with the end result being a consequence of all the previous decision-making. Focus on the moment of creation, on the stages that lead up to the moment when a product is finished. Focus less on the destination, but rather on exploring the journey from point A to point B.

Primitive Ceramic Fireying

Antónia Labaredas

WORKSHOP
MAY 7TH, 2PM
OUTSIDE CAMPUS

The Workshop aims to fire ceramic pieces using the “primitive method”, that is, firing in the open air using ancestral and elementary techniques. This firing method consists of creating a fire where the clay pieces, through slow and progressive contact with the fire, reach the necessary temperature for them to transform into ceramics. The pieces resulting from this peculiar firing process obtain unique and unrepeatable painting results, resulting from direct contact with fire. The workshop aims to provide students with basic knowledge to fire ceramic pieces.

Casa Viva

Cristina Gallizioli

CONFERENCE
MAY 7TH, 2.30PM
AUDITORIUM EP.1

Artist and architect Cristina Gallizioli is guest to the DE 23/24 Conferences cycle, where she will present the work she has been developing on the body’s interaction with space and landscape, with a special focus on understanding them through physical presence and experience. Living architecture, the impermanence of space and light forms of inhabitation are among her research themes, which she began during her master’s degrees in Architecture at the University of Ferrara, and Performing Arts and Collective Spaces at Roma Tre University. In recent years Cristina Gallizioli has carried out several artistic residencies, during which she has inhabited buildings or public spaces such as Viernulvier in Ghent, Oficinas do Convento in Montemor-o-Novo, Circuscentrum in Ghent and Statens Vaerksteder for Kunst in Copenhagen. In 2016, together with Marco Ferrari, she founded AIDEL – Laboratory for Impermanent Architecture, which works with artistic and cultural organizations in Europe, developing research and artistic productions to be shared with the public in the form of live works, installations, workshops, public talks, exhibitions, writing and dwelling sessions.

AI, your new partner in crime

Nuno Ribeiro

OPEN CLASS
MAY 7TH, 2.30PM
ROOM 51 EP.1

At this moment it’s impossible to remain indifferent to the buzz around Artificial Intelligence. Over the last year and a half, we’ve been impacted by new tools, platforms, and applications of AI almost every day. The way we relate to each other and work is changing, and it is changing into a new reality, the era of collaboration between humans and Artificial Intelligence. Therefore, it is crucial to be aware of this new reality and develop a critical attitude to face the challenges and benefits it brings.

This session aims to demystify the role of AI in the creative process, showcasing how it can serve as a partner rather than a replacement. We’ll showcase real-world examples of AI-assisted projects, introduce AI tools that can enhance your creativity, and how to seamlessly integrate this technology into your workflow.
