About
I work at the intersection of brand, product, content, and strategy to shape projects, solve problems, and create meaning for compelling experiences. I strategize concepts, from naming and brand identity to content design, information architecture, design frameworks, and visual communication.
I have over six years of experience in digital design and print, working for clients and self-initiated projects. I craft distinct identities, design concepts, and graphic layouts with attention to typography and a clean, minimalist, and highly expressive approach. In my work, I focus mainly on building content-driven media and editorial platforms in art, design, technology, society, and climate change.

Projects
Readesign is a conversational platform for critical design where leading practitioners, critics, and cultural thinkers explore and analyze visual design projects, concepts, and methodologies.
Creativin is a podcast and newsletter service that pairs brands with high-impact societal topics—from ecology and technology to society, culture, science, politics, design, and the creative industries. It aims to shape the thinking of tomorrow and collaborate with other media outlets to inspire transformational societal changes.
Contemporary Art Archives is a part-editorial, part-search system documenting contemporary artists, projects, publications, curators, galleries, institutions, and collections worldwide. Designed as an open-source instrument that transforms categorical organization and creates dynamic content relations, it enables users to unlock associative thinking patterns.
Confluential is an online research, publication, and conversational lab for cross-industry thinking models about technological, environmental, and societal risks. It disseminates research, articles, projects, analyses, and long-form discussions to specialized and general audiences, facilitating community-building among researchers, designers, thinkers, technologists, scientists, ecologists, and policymakers.
From 2012 to 2017, anti-utopias has been a compelling thematic repository of artist portfolios and curated information from the international art scene. After seven years of hiatus, the project is currently re-platformed as a conversational space featuring discussions with forward-thinking artists and cultural practitioners grappling with social, political, environmental, and extinction-level concerns.
This publication was initially conceived in 2015 and resumed in 2022 with a new formula that expands on the original idea of blending perspectives on art, technology, science, cultural studies, politics, and environmental concerns towards a more practical focus—the present future of how we understand humanity and subjectivity amidst current sociocultural, technological, and climate transformations.

"Peripheral Histories" is a print and digital publication that explores an alternative view of experimental film, video, and television art in Romania from the 1970s to 2020. I wrote, edited, and designed the book as a personal narration of the sociocultural transformations in this period rather than an art historical account. (The images are samples of work in process.)
Work Experience
I have worked as a freelance writer and editor since 2009. My writings have been published in various art books, magazines, exhibition catalogs, academic publications, and creative content writing projects in Germany, South Korea, the UK, Slovenia, Switzerland, and the US. I wrote about art, design, architecture, photography, and new media, but I am currently more interested in the intersections between art, design, cultural critique, science, and technology.
I curated and showcased the works of 320 well-established and upcoming artists at the time, including Atelier Van Lieshout, Awoiska van der Molen, Benoit Aquin, Claudia Hart, Herwig Turk, Kjel Bjørgeengen, Lang/Bauman, Marjolijn Dijkman, Norimichi Hirakawa, Sophie Kahn, Susan Silas, or Wesley Meuris. I also published more than 900 editorial materials—from artist interviews and review essays to press information about the most relevant events in the art world.
