I am a textile and surface designer with a degree in Textile Surface Design from Art School Berlin and an MA in Design for Textile Futures from Central St Martins College of Art and Design in London/UK.
I am interested in cross-boundary sensory experiences within textiles in the broadest sense.
My projects evolve from collaborations with sound and software engineers, musicians, scientists and other non-classified artists.
I am the current Surface Bursary holder of London Printworks Trust where I research about screenprint and sound. I work as a collaborator of the Sampler Cultureclash Project by David Littler and give experimental workshops with various partners.
In September 2010 I will be starting the Ph.D. Programme in Media and Arts Technology at Queen Mary University London.
