.. is an interdisciplanary artist and designer working to facilitate human /more-than-human cohabilitation and companionship.

With a background in craft and productdesign as well as amateur theater, her work uses low-tech design tools to intertine communitys with the lands we live on and creating stories that deepen our integration into the seasons.

She is part of Da Trashclub, an theater collective creating new folklore around waste
