Simone C. Niquille

Simone C. Niquille is a Swiss designer and researcher based in Amsterdam. She studied Graphic Design at the Rhode Island School of Design and completed a Master’s in Visual Strategies at the Sandberg Instituut. Her practice, technoflesh Studio, explores how identity, bodies, and biological matter are represented and transformed within digital systems. Working across design, research, and visual culture, she investigates the ways in which technologies shape perception, standardisation, and the construction of the human image. Her work is held in the collections of the Victoria and Albert Museum in London and HeK – Haus der Elektronischen Künste in Basel, and has been exhibited internationally, including at transmediale, Fotomuseum Winterthur, ArkDes, and Paris Photo. Alongside her visual work, she writes and publishes on topics related to digital culture, architecture, and representation. In 2018, she contributed to the Dutch Pavilion at the Venice Architecture Biennale with Safety Measures, a project examining the history and future of ergonomic software and standardised human measurements. She has also been a Mellon Researcher at the Canadian Centre for Architecture as part of The Digital Now research project, and contributes to [permanent beta], a research platform by Fotomuseum Winterthur.
