jellyfish

type: designing for well-being workshop
role: student
collaboration: Digital Futures
location: Sao Paulo, Brazil
year: 2020

The jellyfish was designed for Digital Futures 2020, and it is a very special project for me. It was developed during the pandemic year as an attempt to relive, abstractly, sensations that made me feel good before the lockdown. I believe water is linked to a form of meditation, perhaps because I have swum since I was a kid. When I swim, I feel it is not just about the external sounds that I stop hearing, but the sound in my mind. Considering this, I was inspired by underwater living beings, such as jellyfish and anemones, that, with great elegance and lightness, reproduce the movement that brings me a feeling of tranquillity and well-being.
