GAGE - logodesign and webdesign

The GAGE project was developed by Dr. Luciana Lima and Prof. Dr. Patrícia Gouveia and multiple interdisciplinary researchers from the Department of Multimedia Art at the Faculty of Fine Arts, University of Lisbon, with aru participating in the project between 2020 and 2024.

The aim of GAGE (Game Art and Gender Equity, 2018–2024) was to highlight the role of womenx in the Portuguese gaming industry, exploring the ongoing challenges to gender equity while promoting female participation in this economic and cultural field. The project sought to foster diversity, encourage inclusive practices, and support change in values and behaviors within the gaming sector.

Alongside contributing to collaborative academic publications with the GAGE team, aru was responsible for the design of the project’s logo and website (https://gage1.webflow.io/). For this contribution, she was awarded a three-month scholarship by the Interactive Technologies Institute of the Laboratory for Robotics and Engineering Systems, Portugal, under the EURAXESS – European Commission program.
