Denisa Pubalova (she/her)
About Get in touch
Arts & Research
Visual & Tech
based in Amsterdam
Exploring microscopic and macroscopic happenings, her current research on climate spans from getting to know diatoms (microalgae) as climate storytellers to critically reflecting on the phenomenon of Earth's digital twin. For her artistic research, she was working with Waag Futurelab, Posthuman Art Network CA, and Artbiom Prague.
Together with Dr. Lea Luka Sikau, she co-founded the collective sikau/pubalova, an artistic initiative focusing on nonhuman encounters within the arts. sikau/pubalova were commissioned by Ars Electronica, IMPAKT Utrecht, transmediale Berlin, LABoral, Ensemble Modern, TONALi Hamburg, and ligeti zenter Hamburg.
She is a visual artist in Metanoia Creatives, a collective that focuses on digital animation, generative arts, projection mappings, and large-scale audiovisual events presented worldwide (Dublin, Poland, Czech Republic, Shanghai, Seoul, France).
