What I'm looking for

I'm interested in cultural programming, event production and festival management.

At Biennale MArteLive, I support artist scouting and outreach, jury and partnership organisation, and event production for photography and video art.

My cultural mediation experience includes guiding visitors at the Rijksmuseum and Van Gogh Museum, and interpreting exhibitions for diverse audiences at Biennale Arte. My master's field research examined Videocittà and digital experiences in urban space.
