Description
Working within and on the peripheries of graphic design, art direction, filmmaking, soundtrack composition, curation, and art education, Rafael Attias, BFA GD 91 activates research across disciplines. For over 25 years, his academic and artistic practice explores the deeper dimensions of media + arts along with the intersections of sound, science and design. As a RISD alumnus with a BFA GD '91, Attias has taught throughout the departments of Illustration, Graphic Design, and Digital Media. Lately his explorations have veered into narrative film and soundtracking, ecological thinking, as well as designing and building musical instruments. In Spring 2021, he will explore ecological design with RISD students as a faculty lead for a new partnership initiative with the RISD-Hyundai Research Collaborative titled Adaptive Ecologies: Envisioning Futures. This series highlights the intersections of art, design, theory, social justice and research in interviewed conversations within the RISD community, its faculty and students.
