De facto is a legal term for a set of prevalent practices that have not been formally recognized. These informal practices often come about by way of publics—or rather a collective body that chooses to forego standardization practices in favor of something more... informal.

In sticking with this theme, the studio hosted a “de facto” exhibition on Moore Terrace, a public outdoor space on the RISD campus.
