The project made in collaboration with OVD-Info and FAR, aims to make the invaluable data from OVDinfo API more accessible and easy to understand. One of the key features is the Correctional Cartography map, which provides insights into the movement of individuals resulting from incarceration. The Sentences graph tracks the evolution of prison sentences over time, and the radial diagram focuses on the most common articles leading to political convictions. These visualizations were created using D3.js and Observable Plot. 3D models are made in Blender. Russian version in progress.

As part of my MSc, I developed a full stack social media application using Node.js, Express.js, and EJS, featuring user authentication, profile management, and dynamic content interaction with posts, likes, followers, and comments. The app supports light/dark modes, secure image uploads, and accessibility through mandatory alt text. The project uses an MVC design pattern for maintainability and uses a normalised, secure MySQL database.

Oct 2021 — Dec 2021

During my internship with Claire Williams and Dvora Levy I worked on the tool for artistic research that would help them log their findings in their exploration of the world of the invisible. Following their custom information designs, I developed custom logic of the database using Processwire CMS and created the front-end styles for it. The fun challenge was to only work with open-source tools, which was rewarding and tricky at the same time. Unfortunately, this tool is private but I can provide more information/code etc. on request.

Lacing Lands

internship — 2021

Lacing Lands: moving in relation, is an artistic research project, written, narrated, illustrated and coded in collaboration with ArtEZ Studium Generale for the programme LAND, on ownership, climate break-down and co-existence. It explores the fractured, vast and mediated landscape across two countries, classrooms, histories, memories, and times. My main goal as a designer was to tie together content and form by exploring the depth and patchiness of web design. What if we switch between layers and follow the routes that overlap and interfere with each other? What if we embrace the infinity of the web?
