I study the relational dynamics of kinaesthetic intelligence. On the one hand, human beings are intellectually aware of the impact of non-verbal communication. On the other, our bodies respond to the complexities of real-life encounters reflexively. My work, therefore, combines cinematic arts and engineering to render tangible the subconscious negotiations by which people move one another both emotionally and literally. To translate this subtle, somatic communication into searchable data, the research relies on local, context-specific datasets, challenging conventional data practices and advocating for equitable and ecologically conscious alternatives.

I have performed and exhibited works at the Venice Biennale, Tanz im August Berlin, Artist Weekend NGORONGORO Berlin, Zemeckis Center for Digital Arts Los Angeles, Independent Art Fair New York, Frieze London, Performing Arts Festival Berlin, and The International Symposium on Electronic Art (ISEA) among others, and published in journals, such as TRD: The Drama Review (Cambridge Univ. Press), Culture Machine, MATTER: Journal of New Materialist Research (Univ. of Barcelona Press), and most recently in the edited volume Film Phenomenologies (Edinburgh Univ. Press).

Currently I am a PhD candidate and Annenberg Fellow in the Department of Media Arts and Practice at the School of Cinematic Arts of the University of Southern California. I studied Communication Science at the University of Vienna, Drama at the Conservatory in Vienna, and completed an MA in the program Solo|Dance|Authorship at the University of the Arts Berlin.
