Victoria Shennan - presentation + talk
Victoria Shennan (UK) is an interdisciplinary designer with a background in jewellery design. An important element in her work is the human body with all its facets - from organs to skin cells.
Debora Dax - presentation + talk
In the work of designer Debora Dax (CH), the human body is used as a tool to observe, translate, implement and invent. By questioning and suggesting norms and needs, she explores boundaries and possibilities of body perception. How do our surroundings shape our body?
Merle Bergers - presentation
In her projects, Merle Bergers (NL) reveals a strong interest in biological processes like fermentation, as well as in "non-food" and eating experiences. Her designs, for example the "belly bar", engage with human organs, trying to raise awareness, interaction and conscience about our body-systems.
