Looking Within

Exploring the philosophy of Doc Saki Mafundikwa, “looking from within.” Much of Mam’Gobozi Design Factory’s work stems from design as a field of creative expression—using graphic design as a decolonial practice of defining the design field for themselves.

This talk is scheduled to take place , 2024, at New York time (/UTC) as part of the main Typographics conference. Conference registration is required to attend in person.
