Alongside conducting autonomous research projects, I am open to collaborations and commission;
ranging from conceptual research, through material and field research, to workshop and craft work.

As a commissioned Project Leader and a Design Researcher for the Studio Marcin Rusak, I have created and developed such projects as;
Ghost Orchid
A concept exploring the Genius Loci - figurative spirit of the place - manifested through a half natural, half artificial chimeric Orchid
Realized as a 3D-printed three-meters-tall site-specific sculpture.
Exhibited at Maison Bernard, Théoule-sur-Mer, France [2024]

Encoded Symbols
Study of botanical morphology and plant movement in time through germination, growth, and pollination, creating domestic objects, preserved from eventual death and decay through zinc coating.
Translated into a sculptural lighting collection.
Exhibited at the Encoded Symbols, Carwan Gallery, Athens, Greece [2020-2021]

Tephra Nova
Botanical study of growing and cultivating seeds into ephemeral living-plants domestic objects, - subjected to the eventual death and decay.
Translated into series of anatomical sculptures, as an expansion of the Tephra collection.
Exhibited at The New Guard, Carpenters Workshop Gallery, Paris, France [2022]

DNA of Things
A concept for implementation of digital data into the DNA of living plant matter, as speculative living and
growing "Cloud" data storages.
Visualized through an installation consisting of 3D-printed sculptures depicting the DNA architecture of
the speculative Cloud-Plants; projecting an "implemented" experimental short movie depicting a Butoh
dance-performance.
Exhibited at BIO27 Biennial of Design, Ljubljana, Slovenia [2022]

A concept for a Scent based on the decaying plant matter and a correlative 19th century story of social decadency.
Executed as a multisensory product family consisting of a Fragrance line, 3D-printed aroma diffusers,
and a 3D-printed sculpture.
Launched at the Retti Candle Shop, Vienna, Austria [2022]
