Editors: Filipa Cruz, Manuela Bronze and Orlando Vieira Francisco.
VARIA, the fourth issue of HUB — Journal of Research in Art, Design and Society is a compilation of insightful views on different subjects that drive us through expositions where the true interests and concerns and research of those who enjoy sharing their points of view to build an understanding of the meanings of contemporary art on a global level are presented. This edition presents a constellation of voices, gestures, and research paths that intersect across diverse geographies, temporalities, and concerns.
Each exposition in VARIA is self-contained, yet they collectively resonate, creating a field of echoes where artistic research manifests as a sensitive, embodied, and speculative form of inquiry. VARIA represents an encounter with matter, memory, machines, language, and the world as it exists and as it could be.
