The Shape of Memory

Submitted Apr 15, 2025

About the Talk

This talk explores how personal memories can direct visual story telling, using data that is intimate, emotional and messy, and how artists and designers can shape it into meaningful representations.

Through my experiments with form and artistic mediums, we’ll look at how data visualizations can go beyond charts and infographics and become tangible artefacts and tools for expression.
