GRAPHIC DESIGN

Juliana Ferreira – Ma Chère,

by Juliana Ferreira

In many migratory movements we see people having artefacts and handicrafts with them wherever they go, because it creates a sense of belonging and comfort. In Ma Chère, the craft talked about is crocheted lace and embroidery combined. This craftsmanship as a form of expression and transmission, symbolising patience and waiting. Ma Chère, is a two-voice retranscription of a migratory journey from Portugal to Switzerland, using letters and these textile supports as correspondences. On the one hand, moving to a new country, the building of a life and the expansion of a community in Valais. And on the other hand, the evolution of a country that has become a postcard.

Service Design - 2023

with Angelo Benedetto, Vincent Jacquier, Pauline Saglio

During the service design course, the 3rd year of the Graphic Design, Photography and Media & Interaction Design bachelor's degree programs realized multi-media projects. A collaboration of the Visual Communication department with the theme of SDGs (*Sustainable Development Goals). The theme named "For a good cause, make the SDGS a reality" aims to develop a cause close to the heart of the different student groups. Each project is composed of at least two different supports, one primary and one secondary. The projects could therefore take any form the students deemed relevant, be it a website, editions and posters, a video sequence, or even virtual reality.
