About
Letícia is a designer of interactive and participatory experiences with a creative PhD in Arts and Technology.
In her more than 5 years of experience of collaborative creative and design practices, Letícia has used a large variety of media and technologies in different types of public spaces such as museums, galleries, streets, and schools. Letícia designs experiences about a variety of themes; often about memory and social justice issues. Her work has been shown in New York, Texas, Connecticut, Spain, and Denmark.
In her transdisciplinary doctoral research, Letícia combined creative practice, design research and field research to create an innovative framework to analyze interactive and participatory experiences in public settings (museums, theme parks, and streets). Through this work, she generated original insights for a more intentional and meaningful design practice.
