In this workshop, which focuses on the Esforço Colonizador Português in Porto, Bárbara Neves Alves will explore different research, experimentation and criticism practices to encourage re-inscription of the monument in the public debate and in the space of the city, beginning with its history and materiality.
Designer and researcher, Bárbara Neves Alves received her PhD in Design at Goldsmiths, University of London with an investigation around the concept of miscommunication, which challenges the notion of ‘good communication’ as a design objective. Lately, in Amsterdam, she has focused her work and research on topics such as communication ecologies, communication policies, noise, participatory methods, socially responsible design and decolonization practices. In addition to her investigations, Bárbara Neves Alves collaborated with the collective Cascoland and has taught as a guest teacher at several higher education institutions in the Netherlands.
