Invitation to Collaborate

“Imagination will often carry us to worlds that never were. But without it, we go nowhere.” – Carl Sagan

Imagination is the beginning of every journey into the unknown. My approach blends art, science, and technology to create projects that go beyond the boundaries of traditional thinking. Whether you’re interested in creative thinking workshops, future narratives, or interdisciplinary research projects, here you’ll find the inspiration and tools to push past the limits of what’s known.

Explore my offerings and discover how we can co-create the future together – from visionary art installations to research that connects story and history.

It’s time to ask the questions and craft the answers that open doors to new possibilities. Let’s start!

1. ARTISTIC AND ARTISTIC-RESEARCH PROJECTS

Less drama, more sci-fi – let’s create together!
My experience, combined with imagination and project design skills, allows me to create art installations and speculative narratives that engage both emotionally and intellectually. My works spark dialogue, leave lasting impressions, and create space for reflection.

Exhibitions and installations thrive at festivals, cultural events, and institutions looking for innovative and reflective works. Projects like “Do You Feel Connected?” and “GOLEM” have earned international recognition, showcased at events like EXPO 2020 and Gwangju Design Biennale.

For whom:
Cultural institutions, art galleries, festival organizers, researchers, and academic teams seeking inspiring and engaging artistic projects.

2. LECTURES AND PRESENTATIONS: FUTURE THINKING AND ART & DESIGN + SCIENCE

Once I heard – let’s inspire action!
I deliver lectures and presentations focused on future thinking, design fiction, and the role of art, science, and technology in shaping the future. I showcase case studies from experimental projects, analyzing the impact of technology and societal changes on the contemporary world.

With 12 years of academic experience in interdisciplinary design and research, I bring unique perspectives that inspire reflection on the future and foster the development of innovative solutions.

For whom:
Educational institutions, art galleries, innovation-driven companies, designers, contemporary artists, cultural institutions, science parks, research centers, and creative teams.

3. SPECULATIVE DESIGN AND CREATIVE THINKING WORKSHOPS

Learning by doing – let’s design the future together!

I lead workshops that enhance creativity, interdisciplinary thinking, and speculative design skills. Participants learn design fiction techniques and experimental approaches that help critically explore the future and turn challenges into innovative solutions.

Workshops are flexible and can be conducted online, hybrid, or in-person, tailored to participants’ needs. Through my “applied science fiction” methodology, participants learn not just to anticipate the future but to shape it.

For whom:
Creative teams, start-ups, designers, contemporary artists, universities, cultural institutions, science parks, research centers, innovation sector companies, and the creative industries.

4. RESEARCH PROJECTS AND PUBLICATIONS

Sometimes we need story, not only history – let’s write it together!
It’s rare for an artist to also be scientifically active – for me, this combination is the foundation of my work. My interdisciplinary approach has made my projects and tools case studies in both applied and social sciences.

Projects like “Fossibilities” and “Who Nose” were carried out in research institutions like Universitat Politècnica de València and ASP Gdańsk, blending technology experimentation, social analysis, and cultural context to offer innovative ways of exploring the future.

For whom:
Researchers, academic institutions, interdisciplinary teams, and organizations interested in innovative forms of research and scientific-artistic publications.

5. HAVE ANOTHER IDEA?

Because every change, every discovery begins with a question.

Maybe this time, your question will lead us to an extraordinary collaboration.

I love connecting what seems distant and creating fresh perspectives. If you have an idea that defies conventions or a project that needs a fresh outlook – reach out! Together, we can create something truly exceptional.
