My work is a personal exploration at the intersection of Art, Architecture, Science, and Philosophy. By fostering dialogue between these disciplines, I aim to bridge divides and spark deeper curiosity and critical thought. In an era of fragmentation and rapid change, I see this integrative approach as not only relevant but essential.
My focus is on the Didactics of Creative Learning & Technology, where I explore experimental methods of thinking, making, and teaching. This work is rooted in empowering others to engage with the world creatively, reflectively, and with a sense of agency. On this webpage, you’ll find a selection of recent and past projects, collaborations, and experiences that reflect this evolving journey.
