Creating Enrichment
I work with groups and institutions to create real-world, interactive experiences and exhibitions. These projects are both physical and digital. They range from mobile experiences to engage people with Alzheimer’s, to museum galleries dedicated to introducing visitors to art, to engaging passers-by in London with the miraculous workings of the brain. I’m excited to announce that a current project is a finalist in Fast Company’s World Changing Ideas contest.
Growing the Field
I’m thankful for the opportunity to share this work with others, and to learn in return. Whether it’s teaching, speaking at a conference, giving workshops, or writing, sharing is essential to the growth of our field.
About Me
I’ve been working on projects that engage the public for over twenty years. I enjoy working in collaboration to bring unique projects to life.
“Maria is… Smart. Creative. Genuinely invested in using design to elevate diverse voices. Brilliant aesthetic and community designer–making beauty and community complementary, additive creatures instead of elements to be balanced and tamed. Someone who listens well enough to deliver what you actually want, even if you don’t know how to express it. And a kind, funny, delightful person to work with.“
