van Aubel (b. 1985) is presenting a first #SolarBiennial, a solar manifesto and an installation at #dutchdesignweek,

Goodbye Dutch Design Week 2022. You were not great, but definitely interesting. Covid-19 and accelerating neoliberalism effect this edition: design as neoliberal praxis, back to products and services, future thinking based on the current status quo. I hope this is just temporary and design will lead again. See you next year! #ddw #ddw22 #ddw2022 #design #dutchdesignweek #speculativedesign
