Her thesis investigates the artistic appropriation of the “space of the embodied virtuality”, concept proposed to denominate the technical assemblage that is shaping our culture and contemporary spaces of dwelling. With this aim, she focuses on the material conditions and social processes related to innovations such the Internet of Things, data visualization and digital fabrication. She frames on its potential use towards a collective production of urban space. During her research she has been an invited artist/researcher at the laboratory Paragraphe/CITU of the Université Paris8.
