Section 1 | Collaboration

 

The diversity of voices needed these days to generate creativity, empathy, and resilience increased with the health crisis and isolation stemming from the coronavirus pandemic. However, even before that, many women designers had opted for transversal dialogues and collaborations to arrive at new solutions and understanding; clearly, the health crisis accelerated those processes. And each time collaboration between professionals is more frequent in developing alternative ways of making, learning, and proposing. It is about collaborations between women and men colleagues, as well as with creators from different disciplines: artists, cooks, writers, and others. Participation and interaction with rural or urban artisans and communities with plural cultural traditions is a constant in the work that many women designers carry out today.
