Profile
Fifteen years working with communication teams as a media designer [ video, design and web ] combined with studies in fine arts (Master in Sculpture and Degree in Fine Arts, with honors) and art curating (cultural management). This hybrid practice lets me take on the concept and strategy as much as the visual and technical production of complex projects. My video Elenchus was recently acquired by the Belvedere’s Ursula Blickle Video Archiv (Vienna, 2026); I was 1st runner-up for the Beyond Future Art Prize (Berlin, 2025).
