Almost there…
Notes from the installation at MNAC, the team's reasons to come on 5 November, and the book launch on 13 November.
See you at MNAC
Our characters are moving into a museum. The opening at MNAC Bucharest, the workshops for teenagers and the guided tours, plus the story of how I first walked into MNAC.
Enter slowly
Our train journeys through France and Romania on one map, and E-1027, Eileen Gray and Jean Badovici’s house by the sea: close to ruin in the 1990s, restored today. Plus a few words on a busy November.
From 1,000 photographs to 97: our book is at the printer
How more than 1,000 photographs, shot on 28 rolls of film across France and Romania, became 97, and how those 97 became a book: 120 pages, three texts and three games to play in your own city.
We’ve been busy
We thought it would be easy. Instead, it was one of the hardest work experiences of our lives, including the day we lost our characters on a train. Our return after two months of traveling through modernist France and Romania.
The City becomes our Playground
For the past few weeks, we have been exploring the urban space, documenting the meeting between our crafted toys and the modernist heritage around us through photography.
Hello, modernism!
How do we understand modernism today?
What do simple lines, the discovery of the basis of visual language, or social utopias mean today? And how can we explore them through play?
Start! On Necessary Pauses
After a few months of intentional silence and a bag full of unexpected drawings, I’m back. Discover why I stepped away from the digital noise, how a box of oil pastels changed my perspective, and the first details of our new ambitious project: The Resilience of the Forgotten Fairytale.
