About

POCKET was an OPEN competition to design visual installations that promote Winnipeg Design Festival 2019 and its theme to the public. The theme of this year’s 2019 Winnipeg Design Festival is entitled PROTO-. Following the theme, the installations will focus on encouraging, embracing, celebrating, and respecting the idea of the ‘first-in-time’ or ‘first-of’ within Winnipeg’s dynamic design culture. The installations are now installed around Winnipeg and the public is invited to come and engage with the work! They can be found at IKEA, the Forks Market, Hudson's Bay (Portage Ave), and the Centennial Concert Hall.
