TEMA: PROJECTO DE IDENTIDADE VISUAL PARA CIDADE DE MAPUTO
–
Acresce ainda que, sendo a criação da identidade visual de uma cidade um processo complexo que passa por conhecer (e reflectir sobre) a História do lugar, as comunidades que o habitam (a dinâmica das suas interacções, a vivência dos espaços, a memória afectiva do lugares) e a visão e/ou as aspirações dos seus diversos stakeholders (poderes públicos, empreendedores, agentes culturais, etc.), este projecto permitiu aos participantes aprofundar os seus conhecimentos e debater estas diversas dimensões antes de desenvolverem os seus próprios projectos.
A apresentação pública destes trabalhos pretende constituir-se como um contributo para uma reflexão em torno da cidade e do seu futuro
Because the development of a visual identity for a city is a complex process that involves many diverse components – having a deep and detailed understanding of the history of the city, its communities and the dynamic of their interactions, the relevant iconography, the visions and/or aspirations of the different stakeholder, etc. – the project also allowed participants to engage in a series of fruitful debates and discussions that helped them in their creative process while developing their own projects.
The public presentation of these works hopes to encourage further discussions and debates on the future of the city.

SOBRE O MAPUTO FAST FORWARD
MFF was launched in 2016 as an open platform engaged in promoting creativity and innovation. Its main objective is to help Mozambican creators and innovators across all fields of activity (arts, culture, design, architecture, technology, etc.) to develop and present their projects, engage in fruitful trans-disciplinary debates and develop collaborations in order to establish an ecosystem that will allow them to expand their creative skills and to participate, through the exploration of networking opportunities, in the “global conversation” that is taking place within the “creative industries” sector.
