Working with Wichi traditions: Thinking a design co- project with aboriginals in a decolonialistic way

Presentation of the dissertation project.
The project is focused on the material and immaterial implications of the Wichi production of handicrafts. Combining ethnographical and design methods, the first goal is to understand what this production means for the Wichis themselves. To be considered are aspects such as invested time, incomes, memories, reproduction of the culture and identity. Afterwards, a participatory project with artisans and design students of the University of Buenos Aires will take place in the field.
