ABOUT
No matter if it comes to digital, human to human or human to nature interactions there is the question of what kind of environments we, as humans, prosper in.
The post- anthropocentric time demands the conscious shaping of a resilient environment where we can continue to breathe, feed and develop.
ALL of this is what I develop concepts, designs and contexts for, with the help of foresighting, facilitation, choreography and participatory design processes.
I'm systematically developing my practice by looking in to the fields of
Social Choreography, City and Regional planning, Urban Design, Architecture, Education, Change and Transformation Management, Foresighting, Design Thinking and Service Design.
With a BA in Choreography from SNDO at the Amsterdam University of the Arts and a MA in Urban Futures from Potsdam University of Applied Science in combination with studies in the History of Ideas at the University of Uppsala and Theology and Drama at the University of Gothenburg, together with numerous workshops on design processes and participatory leadership,
I have worked with among other Freie Universität Berlin, Potsdam University of Applied Sciences, Fontys University of Applied Sciences in Tilburg, Amsterdam University of the Arts, Biological museum in Stockholm, Gothenburg Dance and Theater festival, Uferstudios, Tanzfabrik, MDT, WELD, HETVEEM, Johan Forsman - SKOGEN, Anna Asplind, Anna Koch, Ivana Müller, Keren Cytter, Ibrahim Quraishi, Stephanie Rauch, Lea Martini, WhiteHorse, the D - collective, Jörg Koslowsky, Multiplicities, BuroHappold, Initialdesign, The City of Königslutter am Elm, The District of Mayen-Koblenz.
Through my art I'm investigating materiality, memory and belonging in the forms of performances and installation.
My artistic work has been presented in Brazil, Germany, Hungary, The Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, The United Kingdom and U.S.A.
