“We visited the Material Connexion – a material library. We were briefed on the work involved, and its goals of connecting corporations with emerging sustainable material science. Following the Q&A, we were allowed to touch any of the materials present as much as we wanted. 🧱🪨🧽🪵🗞️

Then after a short gelato break and a few more subway stops, we ended up at MoMA (the Museum of Modern Art). We first stopped at the incredible exhibit – Life Cycles: The Materials of Contemporary Design and the exhibition from Brazilian artist Tadáskía – before exploring the rest of the museum."

The origin of April Fools’ is not exactly known.🤷🏻‍♀️
There are many theories and each country celebrates it differently. 🐟 In France, for example, the tradition is known as “April Fish” or poisson d’avril! A possible joke being to attach a paper fish to another person’s back without them noticing.🐠

No jokes here! Happy April Fool’s 🐡
