The art is inspired by the value of a sense of place for creatives — incorporating cartographic practice recalling the event's location in coastal Portugal, plus material elements reminiscent of gemstones, diamonds, and the compass giving us north stars in design. And as a nod to the inner life of designers, these pieces serve to remind us of the importance of honoring the space to make strokes in our work that embrace the imperfections of artistic expression: less perfection, more flow, more art.
