Carolina Márquez Bernard is a book designer and independent researcher based between Zurich and Barcelona. She explores design from the theory and practice, expanding her knowledge through multidisciplinary collaborations that propose new forms of human-environmental interaction. She is committed in a practical discussion of human and non-human assamblages by the means of design, where she can reflect on new forms of ecologies, the social and political implications of affective material, as well as on anthropological studies currently of relevance.
