About

Key Project is a multidisciplinary design archive by Rafaela Freitas.

The project explores memory, migration, identity, and the emotional weight carried by everyday objects.

The work began with a school key from Brazil that unexpectedly remained with me after moving to the United States. Over time, this object became a recurring symbol in my creative practice.

Through graphic design, magazine covers, and ceramic sculpture, the project investigates how ordinary objects can hold private stories connected to public spaces, displacement, and personal history.
