Currently, he is a PhD candidate at the School of Architecture, Royal College of Art, London.
His practice takes multiple formats including installations, digital platforms and evidence for legal
cases.
Individual and collaborative projects were presented at the Nieuwe Instituut, Helsinki Biennial, Galeria Municipal do Porto, Bergen Kunsthall, among other forums.
