I was asked by a private equity firm to create a collection of artworks to celebrate the history of the company using the company’s data. The final collection, drawn using millions of tiny dots, consists of a main piece, two specific specializations and a set of five vibrantly colored monochrome versions.

Growing Cities

Thu, 13 Aug 2026 00:00:00 +0000

In collaboration with the EPFL Laboratory of Urban and Environmental Systems, I transformed their scientific research on global urban growth into an aesthetic data artwork. By visualizing how cities like Shanghai and Beijing have evolved over two decades, I created an A0-sized piece that brings their findings to a wider audience in a beautiful, art-oriented way. The team aimed to move beyond traditional scientific charts to showcase their research through a more engaging lens. The design ensures that while the end result looks like abstract art at first glance, upon closer inspection, the viewer can clearly discern the underlying urban growth trends and individual city morphology.

Re-imagining music’s ‘Gold Record’ with Data Art

Tue, 22 Sep 2020 00:00:00 +0000

Sony Music reached out to collaborate on creating a data-driven re-imagination of the ‘gold record’, the record certifications plaques that celebrate milestones in the journey of a song or album. Using data from the music itself and from Spotify and Youtube, such as the streams, playlists and chart positions, I created a data art system that creates a unique poster that shows the “data fingerprint” for each song. These posters are meant to be printed at the same size as the original gold records, at 40x50cm. I therefore had a lot of room to add visual details from the elaborate datasets. I aimed for a type of work that should be placed on a wall and every time you walk by, you can read a bit more and learn something new for weeks and months. Something that’s worth it to print and frame, that keeps on giving insights the longer you look. Something that you can appreciate visually in an instant, but it takes longer to gain insights (should you even want to).

A Real-World Exploration of the Janssen Product Portfolio

Thu, 17 Oct 2019 00:00:00 +0000

I created a large poster for Janssen that provides an overview of the ingredients within their product portfolio, and the extent to which those ingredients are observed across a network of healthcare data that is available throughout the Johnson & Johnson enterprise. Revealing insights such as seasonality in use, and in which areas of the world the ingredients are taken the most. This poster was created to make the employees of Johnson & Johnson, the mother company of Janssen, aware of the wealth of data that they have at their disposal to do research.

Olympic feathers

More than 5000 Olympic events have had a winner in the Summer Olympics since the first games of 1896. In Olympic Feathers you can investigate how each of these medals has been won in the 56 different sporting disciplines that have competed at the games, of which 41 are still held at Rio 2016. To see patterns appear in certain sports, such as weightlifting going from mostly European medals to Asian countries during the recent Olympic Games, or get a sense of the number of events that each sport has and when women events were finally added to each sport. This visualization shows the entire history and lets the viewer decide what they want to focus on.
