The Green Walls Favela Art project commemorates the visit of members of ICOM (International Council of Museums) to Museo de Favela--AUGUST, 2013.
During the month of April 2014, five artists living in the favela Contagalo, created this unique outdoor gallery. Professor Emeritus, Emily Carr University of Art and Design—Vancouver, Britrish Columbia, Canada curated the project-installation. The "team" visited Rio Botanical Gardens and learned about growing plants in repurposed plastic containers and disgarded coconuts from the beaches of Rio de Janeiro. Artists created large format paintings that included spaces to contain plants. Hence, "Green Walls Favela Art" installations.

Desk Node

description
Situated between a personal artifact and ubiquitous object, Node is a multifunctional light tool for creatives. It creates a space for a variety of task completion. It is an on-desk workspace that acts as a desk light, light table, and a study timer.
The back splash lights up so that it illuminates the work space for completing analog tasks as well as providing a back light that contrasts the on screen glow from the user's computer. The light is most intense at the bottom and fades into a diffused filter near the top as to not be too harsh on ones eyesight.

The Venerable Lift - A hand-powered wheelchair lift for vertical access in a two storey house.
Frequently in old age, frailty and infirmity set in, limbs ache and joints become stiff, Movements from room to room become onerous. Journeys from floor to floor become insurmountable trials of will. Typically, vertical circulation for the elderly is cold and impersonal, often serving as an unpleasant visual reminder of weekness, take for example wheelchair lifts or pneumatic lifts.
How do we create human powered and aesthetically pleasing vertical circulation that gives the elderly the opportunity to move safely and independently?

Textile waste is currently the third largest contributor to the solid waste stream in Vancouver, amounting to more than 33,600 tonnes a year. In addition, most textiles that are thrown out still have a usable life—which indicates that there is a strong need to shift our thinking to accommodate the sustainable use of textiles in our daily lives.
