Bio

To me, exhibition design is about creating stories we remember and interactions we cannot resist. So, if I were to design an exhibition about myself, what would it feel like?

You would enter a space filled with the warm colours of a summer day: orange, pink, yellow and green. Music would guide you through the room, because to me, no experience is complete without sound. The atmosphere would balance calm moments of presence with playful conversations, unexpected interactions and something new to discover around every corner.

The installations would invite you to take part, rather than simply observe. Some would require collaboration, because my best ideas usually grow through conversations with other people. Perhaps the scent of fresh herbs would suddenly fill the room, leading you towards an abundance of colourful fruits and vegetables, and hinting at my dream of one day creating an exhibition about food, health and food production.

I want you as a visitors to feel welcome enough to take part, curious enough to stay and inspired enough to keep talking about the experience on their way home.
