Hello!
My name is Celine-Joy (Celine), a Hong Kong-born Filipina who grew up in the New England region of the US. I am a scientist turned artist/designer currently residing and studying in Switzerland.
I am an experimental artist, multidisciplinary designer, and researcher. My work focuses on the intersection between science communication, design, and aesthetics. With a background in life sciences, my goal is to make complex information accessible to broader audiences through creative practice and visual design.
