Studentship detail:
The landscape of work in the creative industry, accelerated by the pandemic, is shifting towards hybrid work, involving in-person and remote collaborative practices. This means that as digital technology and virtual connectivity are becoming fully assimilated into everyday practice, the world is witnessing a transition from questions around how technology can be adopted and used in the workplace to those around how the new hybrid ecosystem should be humanised and designed to support workers holistically. Consequently, post-digital work will spatially, managerially, and socially juxtapose several seemingly conflicting constructs in the workplace (such as the need for simultaneous connectivity and disconnection; synchrony and asynchrony; individuality and collectively). This shift in work practices challenges the conventions of creative collaborative working.

"Trébol y Carmesí" is an exhibition that combines photography and landscape design to present a visual diary. Rather than a homogeneous project, it evokes "wild weeds"—a conjunction of nature and urbanity where every moment appears as a "non-place." Building on this, an in-situ intervention was created with Carla Hernández (@dealerdeplantas) to inhabit the exhibition in an architectural and organic manner, drawing from the intersection of urbs-natura-civitas and the photographic work of Erick Conceka.
