desarting is a case study of the act of visualising communication: it reveals the possibilities and its applications
with respect to various autonomous qualities and engaging opportunities. the monthly series brings together
creative entrepreneurs trained as designers and as artists to showcase their unique practices in the new
onomatopee project space. a critical writer follows them and together they mutually and publicly endeavour
to describe their practices, starting with an honest personal approach.
