Jakub Stepanovic (MFA) is an interdisciplinary creative who likes to use a hands-on approach and playfulness to stimulate understanding and engagement across fields of knowledge and influence.
He is currently working on practice-led research in science communication in Leuven, Belgium, where he focuses on conveying nature of science in the context of the incomplete data of Venus' atmosphere. The project links Jakub's background in journalism and PR with his passions for visuals and learning.
Jakub's fine art primarily consists of installations, sculptures, and image manipulations, and takes inspiration from links across different cultures and beliefs he experienced while on assignments between Europe, America, and Asia. 
When he is not in the studio or office, Jakub enjoys the outdoors on a bike or foot.
