Forms
3D, Animation, Identity
FORMS is a MoTi Foundation initiative that brings together museums, institutions, artists, activists, educators, and scientists to create cultural experiences and glimpse other possible futures. It is a cultural community gathered around imagination as a way to decolonize the future. Its gatherings take place between natural environments and cultural spaces, creating immersive, non-formal educational encounters in which different frames of reference come together around shared questions and concerns. Rather than starting from the illusion of a ready-made or ideal future, it creates the conditions to rehearse one collectively—in a world where multiple forms of life can coexist. Collaboration and collective intelligence generate sounds, colors, materials, and forms for an identity in continuous construction, capable of evolving through dialogue with each experience.
