As a designer, economist, and researcher, I explore ways to bridge the gap between making and sustainability. My work is centered on the exploration of how materials behave and our relationship with them.
Rio, Milan, Barcelona, Paris. Brazilian & French
Growing up in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, I've always been deeply connected to the nature that surrounded me. My practice began with the arts and fashion.
Later I pursued a BSc in Economics and Management for Arts, Culture, and Communications at Bocconi University in Milan. There, I realized the true environmental cost of production and creation, which could not be shifted through economic decisions without innovation in the field of material design. This realization and a desire to work creatively led me to an MA in Material Design - New Materials at Elisava University of Design and Engineering of Barcelona.
From there I started working with Mycelium as a material and exploring its potential in bioremediation.
