Masaki Miwa
Predominantly designers are understood as service-based tools; "simply reacting to problems and tasks placed before them by clients" ¹ .
Masaki's practice aims to challenge and transcend this notion of the designer as a service-based tool—by initiating and influencing practitioners to create content through exchanges of discourse and collaboration.
Design is research; embedding inquiry.
Design is to generate a point of departure; initiating discussion.
Design is creating content; through concept driven forms.
Design is not a service-based tool.
Outside collectives/ groups/ projects:
_Open Praxis, Founder, a collaborative project initiating and generating content with practitioners.
_Just us Collective, 2013 member.
_sitting room skipping, exhibition curation team with artist Estelle Birch.
_masakimiwablog, for work in progress.
