"What tools can we adopt when words are no longer sufficient to describe what surrounds us? The visual and textual contributions in this volume reflect on on the role of artistic and design practices in knowledge production. How can we construct new languages and new imaginaries capable of giving form to experience, uncertainty, and the complexity of our present? How do artists and designers use the tools of their practices to question reality, deconstruct dominant narratives, and propose alternative modes of understanding? This book brings together the works of nearly one hundred young artists and designers who graduated in the last year from the Faculty of Design and Art at the Free University of Bozen-Bolzano. Their projects explore the potential of generating knowledge through image, gesture, form, and action, employing diverse approaches, languages, and sensibilities. Through their intersection with the writings of thinkers, these practices interrogate how artistic and design practices not only represent the world but can also actively shape it, fostering processes of situated, critical, and transformative knowledge."-- Back cover.
