this ıs me tryıng to relate to a muscovy duck ın amstelpark. READ MORE ON THIS HERE!
Hi!
I am both intrigued and overwhelmed by the entangled mess in which we live in and how it would/could change in the future. As a designer/artist, I am seeking ways of making sense of this mess. Research in natural and social sciences guides me along the way, as well as companion dodos or genetically modified plants.
