BIO
Vera van de Seyp is a computational designer, artist, and educator from the Netherlands working at the intersection of graphic design and code. Her practice focuses on generative design systems, experimental typography, and custom tools that explore how computation can help shape visual language. Van de Seyp's work spans digital and physical outputs, including experimental websites, web-based tools, printed matter, creative coding events, and textiles made with a hacked knitting machine. Van de Seyp has collaborated with clients such as WIRED, Signal, and Google Creative Lab, as well as cultural and academic institutions, often translating complex ideas into accessible visual artefacts. Alongside client work, she develops research-driven projects that bridge craft and computation. She regularly teaches, lectures, and leads workshops internationally and most recently at The Cooper Union, NYC, empowering people to create their own tools. For her residency at La Becque, alongside teaching and lecturing at ECAL, she will develop a new series of work that reflects her ongoing research into craft and computation.
