Tartalmi leírás:
The evolution of design in Chile has come about through the amalgamation of knowledge that fuses the practices of local artisans and craftsmen with the economic and cultural influence coming from the United States and Europe - the global North. This mix impacts a society marked by profound social inequalities, where design sometimes finds itself in an uncomfortable position of challenging the universal norms imposed by the North. Beyond questioning colonial models, Chilean design currently finds itself in a unique socio political context by integrating intersectional gender perspectives and reflecting on diverse and distinct Latin American cultures. Challenging the central structures that govern economic development, design takes a different perspective by embracing local visions, the anonymous voices of indigenous peoples, and intangible cultural richness. Silently, craftswomen, caregivers, artists, and those who confront precarity with their skills nurture design and, at the same time, empower people, understandings that give non-neutral agency to design to transform reality in the remoteness of large dominant centers. De otro modo is an integral perspective derived from decolonial perspectives and intersectional feminisms, which aims to bring together the knowledge and doings of the narrow and long Chilean territory from its idiosyncrasies marked by inequalities, disasters, and natural riches. A territory in which designers look between the Andes Mountains and the Pacific Ocean for the well-being of life in the future. The paper describes three case studies based on the authors' research work, which weave together historical-political contexts and socio cultural representation to understand the current dimensions of local design. The first case reviews the significance and resignification of women's popular-local culture in Feminist May (Chile, 2018). The second case analyses the aesthetic and conceptual renovation undergone by both textiles and clothing during the 1970s due to the professionalization of design in the country. In this sense, it explores the influence of the discipline on the cultural transformations of the time, highlighting the role of women designers who integrated iconographic elements of popular and indigenous culture into mass-produced objects. The third case, from a critical-decolonial perspective - informed by ethnographic and anthropological design fieldwork - reviews the discourse of representation around the link between the traditional knowledge of local crafts and the aesthetic bases of contemporary Chilean export design.
