ACTIVITIES
Since 2021, our goal has been to change the perception of dusts from nuisance to valuable matter for understanding and engaging with the urban environment. In public walks, we collect stories about the origins of dusts and materialise those around us with the help of the Dusts Catchers.
We welcome opportunities for collaboration! Invite us to host DUSTS WALKS near you.
