I am a transdisciplinary researcher and curator working across art, science, and education. My work investigates how knowing emerges through environments—understood as situated, mediated, and more-than-human configurations shaped by material arrangements, spatial design, and practice.
Through research-creation and curatorial practice, I design and analyse epistemic environments: exhibitions, learning situations, laboratories, and other experiential formats in which knowledge unfolds as evental, negotiated, and performative rather than representational alone. My approach treats environments not as backdrops for learning, but as active participants in processes of attention, participation, and sense-making.
My practice moves across museums, cultural heritage sites, research centres, and educational settings, connecting artistic inquiry with empirical research and pedagogical experimentation. Working transdisciplinarily, I curate situations in which different forms of knowledge—scientific, experiential, artistic, and more-than-human—can coexist and inform one another.
Alongside my curatorial and research practice, I lead and contribute to long-term collaborations focused on learning environments and knowledge ecologies, and work internationally on the design of experience-based and ecological learning formats.
