ABOUT

Alix Bizet Studio is based in South East London - centred on material research, material application and social and educational programs with museums, universities and local schools.
My work centres on a critical and analytical approach to design and material research.
investigate relationships between our bodies and spaces, objects, systems and media narratives.
My work is often focused on materials and their experimental exploratory features.
I question the relationship we have with our bodies, design and society to challenge the norms and conventions and using creativity and design to disrupt and to create space for discussion with different audiences.
Through my self initiated research, I seek to create situations where design and material innovation comes together to give shape to future scenarios and new narratives for minorities and diversity.

Alix Bizet is currently a lecturer at the Kingston Art Foundation.
