Academically I have worked on different areas of design. I base my creativity on conducting extensive
research and experimentation, mixing materials and techniques. This enables me to develop my idea into a
fully formed artwork concept. During my MA, I have developed a conceptual collection of high heels which
were fusion between artefacts and sculptures. I have advanced skills in digital three-dimensional modelling
and rendering, including Rhinoceros and V-ray. I have experimented with 3D print technology in making of
extremely detailed and complex pieces, I have learnt the application of CAD programs during my naval
architecture and industrial design studies which enabled me to think from an aesthetic and structural point of view. I have
developed a wide range of skills related to craftsmanship, design and the use of materials. These skills allow
me to be part of each stage of the design process and make my prototypes.
