Centre de Design de l’UQAM
From the scenography of COLLECTIBLE 2023 to the Centre de Design at UQAM’s School of Design, where 19 students and Paf atelier embarked on a creative journey. Using only ropes and inflatable cylinders, the studio and the students explored the many ways they could be arranged.
The goal of this research work with the students was also to reproduce it in the form of an exhibition.
Entitled “Les langages du possible” (The languages of possibility), this exhibition is the culmination of a series of discussions and a rigorous process examining the theme of public space, using rope and twenty-eight inflatables supplied by the studio.
A meeting of minds
The exhibition is part of a multidisciplinary approach combining sketches, creative scenography, installation assembly and signage. The workshop took place at UQAM’s design centre, and was a contribution from the studio itself, thanks to a guest appearance by Christopher Dessus (founder of Paf atelier) and the involvement of Eloise Carrier (Principal Studio).
