Through her practice at Illustrious Lab and Ark-Ellia Design, and in collaboration with universities and research institutions, she explores how material cultures, craft knowledge, memories, and lived experiences can inform more sustainable and inclusive futures. Her work combines design research, participatory methods, and creative practice to investigate how people engage with objects, stories, and places, and how these relationships shape cultural meaning. Collaborating with researchers, cultural institutions, and communities across Europe and the North Atlantic region, she examines how heritage can serve as a catalyst for innovation, generating insights that inform future research, design processes, and new approaches to cultural participation, social engagement, and environmental challenges. https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events6/banners/9f1c2cf0-a67e-11f1-8990-5d04d231a2dd-rimg-w1200-h203-dc582878-gmir.jpg About the Curious festivalThe RSE’s free Curious festival of knowledge is back, from Saturday 5 − Sunday 13 September 2026!Curious is Scotland’s annual festival of knowledge.
