This project takes the various notions of craft and their contexts and frames them within a specualtive future where the traditional meets modern fabrication and making. "Atelier 2050" acts as the moderator for the various communities, spaces, and tools to come together and create a new reality that is multidisciplinary, celebratory, and reflective. Exploring every aspect of the world around us, I question every facet of crafts and their contexts. As we move forward into a world of uncertainty, how does craft follow? What will we create around us as the world becomes more interconneted and tangled? "Atelier 2050" seeks to create a structure and set of values by which all crafts communicate to adapt to the changing world. Developing new ways of working and coexisting while remaining connected and respectful of the past. This remains an ongoing exploration of my own methods and approach to making and design.
