Welcome. I’m a Museographer at the Luxembourg Natural History Museum, designing exhibitions and learning experiences about science and natural history.
Most recently I directed a feature length documentary about Hugo Gernsback, entitled Tuning Into The Future (release: Q4 2019).
This website is an archive of my past work as a motion designer and visual artist, spanning a personal practice and commissions, as well as freelancing in the creative industry. I have created expressive artworks for digital and physical environments, including installations, screenings, projections, prints, desktop, mobile and TV screens. I like to explore themes at the intersection of art, science and technology, and see motion graphics as an opportunity for worldbuilding. I hold an MA in Communication Design from Central Saint Martins and a licence in Graphic Design from the Ecole de Recherche Graphique.
If you would like to exhibit my work or include it in a screening programme, please don’t hesitate to get in touch:
