“Artists and designers have a largely shared skill set and knowledge base but the work they create, however indistinguishable in terms of technique, subject matter and visual language, is made for entirely different reasons. Attempts to define or make clear distinctions between art and design are always contestable, but at the beginning of a diagnostic process it is useful to identify a simple delineation between the two: Art An artist's practice generally emerges from their own individual concerns explored over varying durations in the studio. The work is then usually presented to a knowing public either in galleries or in designated public spaces. Design Design is largely initiated externally from the needs or desires of a client or external body. The functionality of the designed solution is as important as its desirability, craft and aesthetics. Design is in the public domain and, as such, its messages, meanings and functions are inextricably linked to the political, social and economic concerns of its audience/ user and its context.”

“No, no puedo decirle lo espeluznante que me resultó mirar con él esos cien o doscientos pedazos de papel vacíos o reproducciones en mal estado, pero que, en la memoria de ese hombre en su trágica ignorancia, eran tan increíblemente reales que sin error celebraba y describía cada uno de ellos en una sucesión intachable. Aquella colección invisible que hacía tiempo debía de haber sido esparcida a los cuatro vientos, para ese ciego, para esa persona engañada de manera conmovedora, todavía estaba allí, inmutable, y la pasión que mostraba al verla era tan abrumadora que casi comencé a creer en ella.”
