We’re very happy to welcome Guillaume Slizewicz as Artist-in-Residence for Sustainable Robotics.
He will be joining a group of a group of international experts on sustainable robotics, AI and automation gathering in Brussels over the course of five months at the Brussels Institute for Advanced Studies to learn, exchange & experiment. During this residency we will support him in delveloping his own research project on robotics.
Guillaume Slizewicz is a designer and digital artist whose work sits at the intersection of technology, the environment, and societal issues. Through his practice, he engages with the tension between innovation and sustainability, using technology in poetic, evocative and critical ways. His approach draws connections between ancient practices and contemporary digital tools.
Graduating in Politics, Philosophy, and Economics from the University of Kent and later in Production Technology at Copenhagen’s School of Design and Technology, Guillaume founded his studio in 2021 to explore these relationships through digital arts and collectible design. His works often blend physical materials—metal, wood, and clay—with digital processes like algorithms, artificial intelligence, and computer-aided manufacturing.
Guillaume’s artistic inquiry extends beyond materials to his collaborative and experimental methodology. His works are often developed within collectives and with other designers. His work has been presented in institutions like Schloss Hollenegg, MAD(Brussels), Impakt (Utrecht), Design Museum (Ghent), Le Pavillon (Namur), BioArt Labs (Eindhoven), Fake/Authentic (Milan), Constant (Brussels) by school and universities in Le Fresnoy, Brussels, Leuven, Basel, Trier and Hong Kong.
