Biography

I am a textile / material / object designer. I live and work between Marseille (France) and Valencia (Spain). My research focuses on textiles, local craftsmanship, eco-designed materials and project methods from cultural and disciplinary intersections. I collaborate with many artisans to develop production scenarios based on an exploration of raw material.

I am also founder of Xufa Proceso (a design initiative based in Valencia, with the objective of exploring eco waste from xufa roots agriculture), design lecturer at the Marseille School of Design and consultant in design anthropology (French Development Agency, International Trade Board of Madagascar, Cerfav).
