MIGRA-N-TI. Practical and Symbolic Experiments in Design

Organised by Abadir www.abadir.net

The issue of migration is one of the most controversial in recent history. Sicily, as a border, experiences the plight of countless boatloads of migrants reaching the coast on a daily basis – their first haven in the “new” world. Abadir is a design school based in Catania. In 2017, the entire academy was dedicated to studying the phenomenon of migration and worked alongside local reception centres to develop a series of projects celebrating the meeting of different cultures.
