MainGUILTY, in collaboration with its creative director and artist Carlos Mello, proudly announces the successful participation in the latest edition of INDEX Dubai, held from June 4th to 6th, 2024. The event marked a significant milestone for both MainGUILTY and Carlos Mello, showcasing their unique artistic pieces to an international audience.
On the first day of the fair, Carlos Mello had the honor of being a guest speaker at the design talk, discussing "Designing for Impact: Achieving Sustainable Development Goals Through Responsible Design." The conversation was subtly and masterfully moderated by Esra Lemmens. Carlos Mello extends his special thanks to his fellow panelists:
- Dr. Albert Fakhoury Ph.D. - CIAAD
- Will Plowman – Foster + Partners
- Ely N. Skaff – Sunset Hospitality
- Richard Wilson - Colab
Another notable highlight was the visit of the Ambassador of Portugal, Joaquim Moreira de Lemos, to our stand, where he expressed his support and admiration for the creations of MainGUILTY and Carlos Mello.
During the exhibition, there was a special collaboration with the Russian artist Sergey Markofken, based in Dubai. Sergey performed a live intervention on Carlos Mello's UnderPressure collection, adding a dynamic and interactive element to the exhibition.
