Hi, I’m Valentin Aubois-Liogier, a French designer, artist, and researcher based in Paris. ― Coming from a design background, I navigate across disciplines and media: designing, writing short texts and poetry, performing, dancing, and drawing. My work explores socioecological transformations in domestic and urban spaces, engaging with the banal, the liminal, the rejected, the filthy, and the abject. ― Since 2021, I’ve been pursuing a PhD in Design and Urban Planning at the CITERES lab (UMR 7324), while also teaching in these fields (agrégé d’arts appliqués*). ― My practice-based doctoral research explores how users and stakeholders perceive human urine recycling systems, with a particular emphasis on the system I designed. This intimate, powerful, and often overlooked bodily fluid is at the center of my current practice. ― I’m always open to discussions and collaborations. Feel free to reach out to learn more about my work and projects!
