Architect Marta de la Fe Leads ‘DIY Format: Expanded Self-Publishing’ Workshop at TEA Museum
This new activity within the ‘Onda Corta’ programme will feature a meeting with the workshop leader next week
Architect Marta de la Fe will lead a workshop on fanzines and DIY philosophy next week at the TEA Tenerife Espacio de las Artes. Additionally, she will hold a meeting discussing her career. The first of these two activities, part of the public programme Onda Corta. Documentation Laboratory, will take place on Friday (12th) at 6:00 PM. The workshop, DIY Format: Expanded Self-Publishing, will be held on Saturday (13th), from 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM and from 4:00 PM to 8:00 PM. Both activities are free, but prior registration is required for the workshop by sending an email to [email protected].
Exploring DIY and Community Self-Publishing
DIY Format: Expanded Self-Publishing invites participants to explore the intersections of fanzines, open-source design, and DIY (Do It Yourself) philosophy. Participants will start from self-publishing as a free and community-driven practice, considering how these ideas also apply to furniture design and the ways in which spaces are inhabited. The workshop space will be used to reflect on self-publishing and DIY as methodologies, exploring references from 1970s design and addressing personal experiences related to exhibition design, with the intention of constructing a collective piece of furniture that incorporates learned concepts.

About Onda Corta
Curated by Narelys Hernández and Joel Peláez, Onda Corta experiments with registration, documentation, and archiving processes within the centre’s lines of work, rethinking and expanding the boundaries and forms of traditional recording methods. Alongside the Documentation Centre, the Art Library, and the museum’s exhibition programming, Onda Corta proposes dynamics to explore how TEA relates to the community and how its building can be inhabited, aiming to highlight the public, plural, and shared nature of these spaces.
