        ise is a media designer and book artist based in Rotterdam. She begins from a place of feeling, with a sensitivity to people, atmospheres, and the contexts in which communication takes place. Her work moves across experimental book forms, participatory workshops, public formats, and visual communication, translating complex social, cultural, and emotional contexts into shared experiences.
       With a background in Contextual Design, she understands design and artistic practice as tools for making sense of the world and for cultural critique. Through objects, images, and situations, she approaches authorship as a form of responsibility, using narrative and imagination to create spaces for collective reflection. 

She is an external lecturer in book design at MdRV (Cooperative State University Baden-Württemberg, Ravensburg) and a mentor and coach in filmmaking at the intersectional feminist project GIRLS GO MOVIE in Mannheim, Germany.
