Fishstall Eternity
A mobile fish stall that makes PFAS contamination in the Westerschelde tangible and invites public dialogue and concrete action
visual language
in collaboration with Fides Lapidaire - 2025 - ongoing ​
Fishstall Eternity is a social design installation by Fides Lapidaire that makes the invisible issue of PFAS contamination in local water systems tangible and discussable through the everyday encounter of eating fish. On the Dutch Design week and varous weekly markets in Zeeland, visitors were invited to receive portions of seafood measured according to personal PFAS exposure limits. The project highlights how water quality affects what we can safely eat and how pervasive these “forever chemicals” have become.
​
My role in this project focused on developing the visual language of Fishstall Eternity. Through illustration and graphic design, I translated the research and narrative of the project into a layered visual system. We deliberately allowed the world of everyday life: fish, bodies, eating, to intertwine with the system world of PFAS, data and regulations, mirroring how these worlds are inseparably entangled in our daily lives. Each layer has its own colour palette and visual style, resulting in a rich, multi-layered imagery that reflects the complexity of the issue and supports the experiential nature of the project.
