I am deeply interested in Biomimicry, which is the process of learning about and from nature in order to transfer that knowledge and propose innovative solutions to human-related problems.

​

Currently, in collaboration with Prof. Karen De Clerck and textile engineers and materials scientists at UGent we are  producing biomimetic/bioinspired functional membranes based on reptile eggshell structures and adaptations.

​

I also work with biologist and designer María Boto Ordóñez at KASK & Conservatorium, Gent to find new ways to impart structural coloration (inspired by bird colors) to different materials used in art projects.

​

Watch our discussion about structural coloration at the intersection between art and science here. Part of the lecture series of The Beauty Chair, PSL Université Paris.
