Lucy McRae leads an art-research studio investigating technology and scientific impacts on the planet and natural world. Her artisanal approach to technology brings science to street level— creating imaginary worlds, in sculpture, film and conceptual fashion, exploring who we are, and where we are headed. In parallel to her gallery and museum-focused art practice Lucy thrives as a strategic and versatile thought partner to brands, Institutes, and Hollywood Writers' rooms, including Blade Runner 2099. Renowned for her agility and exceptional capacity to connect far-reaching dots, Lucy brings a multiplayer mindset to thought experiments and design led innovation, drawing from her experience leading the far-future research division at Dutch multinational Philips (2006-10) developing wearable technologies with emotional sensing capabilities. A Visiting Professor at SCI-Arc, co-directing a futures incubator, Lucy is a World Economic Forum, Young Global Leader and TED Fellow.
