WOII: Week 10 - Poststructuralism

​Poststructuralism, a philosophical movement that emerged in the mid-20th century, challenges the idea of fixed meanings and structures in texts and cultural practices. 

This perspective encourages designers to consider the fluidity of meaning and the role of the observer in interpreting design (Discourse Analyzer). 

By embracing poststructuralist principles, designers can create works that are more inclusive and responsive to diverse audiences (Kheder Paintings).

I strongly agree with this sentiment, as it allows for clear understanding and communication with audiences through the adoption of poststructuralist principles.

In this activity, we did an activity in groups where we randomly combined photos and texts. Each person had a different meaning and the way they understood the photos was very different. Through this, we realized that each person has different thoughts and ideas. This was a very interesting study.

To break stereotypes, one sometimes has to be very spontaneous. I felt this a lot in the Craft Workshop module, especially in the Silkscreen Printing Project and the Experimental Layouts Project.

​In the silkscreen printing project, I initially felt uncertain about diving into the process without extensive practice. However, this approach led to the creation of a unique and special poster. Similarly, in the Experimental Layouts project, although there was a predefined structure, I discovered that improvising by cutting and pasting elements spontaneously within that framework often resulted in unexpectedly strong ideas.

Through these experiences, I was able to gain a deeper understanding of poststructuralism. In design, this means viewing creations not as closed entities with singular meanings, but as open-ended sign systems that allow for multiple interpretations (Melahat Küçükarslan). By breaking away from fixed conventions, we can generate more open, unique, and distinctive ideas.

Capturing what became the ridiculously lengthy process of trying to add a little bit of text to a design…

(This one really did take me to the edges of sanity for absolutely not logical reason at all… I don’t understand how people make text look so good when they use it… it always looks rubbish when I include it! 🤷‍♀️)
