Nexus: Design/Craft/Innovation
On March 7, the Powerhouse Museum hosts this talk about craftsmanship and its vital role in design. From 6.30 pm to 8.30 pm, a group of thinkers, designers, practitioners and writers will discuss about three intertwined themes: design, craft, and innovation. The experts panel will be formed by Stephen Varady, architect, designer and educator; Dr Zoë Veness, a designer-maker whose main interests are objects and jewellery; Dr Sam Spurr, a theorist and designer; Anna Lise De Lorenzo, founding director of &company, Sydney’s first public workshop for makers; and Dr Mark Ian Jones, the current Deputy Head of School (Design) at UNSW Art & Design.
