HELLO!
I conceive and curate exhibitions and multimedia projects.
Interventions that make people pause and reflect are a delight to me. My own approach involves tickling our innate curiosity or revealing details that hide in plain sight.
I have a background in architecture, design, and writing – a foundation that continues to inform my work. My practice evolves through collaborations with local and international creative talent, institutions, and cultural organizations.
I invite you to scroll through a selection of my projects below.

IN THE WORKS...
Circuits of Sand & Water explores the curious moment we inhabit: one in which humans are striving for machine-like rationality, while machines take on humanoid characteristics. The intention of this project is to highlight this crossover, to place the audience in relation to difficult truths about digital privacy and consider what is at stake for an AI-powered future.
The experience is currently being developed with support from the Canada Council for the Arts and CALQ. The strenghts of fiction, immersive theatre, and sound design will be combined to question our place in a world where algorithms construct desires; where legacies and memories are increasingly digital; and where the mechanical gaze parses every action.
FLIGHT MODE
An exhibition about the erosion of solitude from contemporary culture. Two immersive installations housed in shipping containers invited passing pedestrians to reflect on what we readily give up in pursuit of constant connectivity.
