Disseny Hub Barcelona, el Parc i la Llacuna del Poblenou, Sant Martí

Matter Matters is an exhibition that uses the materiality of pieces from the Museu del Disseny collection alongside innovative contemporary works to reflect on the major challenges facing design now and in the future, at a critical moment marked by the scarcity of raw materials and the urgent need to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050. This is an era of necessary historic transition in our relationship with materials, moving away from an essentially extractive model towards a more regenerative one. The exhibition examines the collection and juxtaposes it with the systems that organise the world through materiality. The exhibition installation explores overlapping boundaries between design, ecology and geopolitics. Matter Matters is a reflection on the state of the world today and a journey through the history of design in all its disciplines.
