My name is Hannah Paradis, I am a designer and multimedia artist whose practice investigates the intersections of digital infrastructure, material history, and the human form. With a formal education spanning the Fine Arts and Interaction Design, my work seeks to bridge the precision of systemic design with the visceral, “bodily” qualities of ceramic media.

My recent inquiries have been supported by several international residencies in Aotearoa (New Zealand), where I focused on decolonial craft methodologies and traditional firing techniques. Whether auditing large-scale infrastructure as a systems analyst or designing adaptive learning environments for neurodivergent students, my approach is defined by a commitment to reflexive design—creating objects and interfaces that prompt a deeper understanding of our physical and technological presence.

The journey

This is a time line of my career and the twists and turns I have taken to inform my creative work.
