'nowhere/now/here' at LABoral, gijon

the exhibition nowhere/now/here is curated by roberto feo and rosario hurtado (el ultimo grito) and designed by patricia urquiola and martino berghinz with graphic design by fernando gutiérrez. the show aims to challenge the perception of design by questioning our relationship with the environment. taking the viewpoint that our environment has become part of us rather than us being part of it, as its point of departure, the exhibition encourages us to see design as an integral component of the world-shaping process.
