Noor Stenfert Kroese is a new media artist and researcher with a background in performance art, scenography, and mycology. She explores biomediated interactions between humans, living organisms, and robotics through media art and performative installations.

She combines her artistic practice with her PhD research at the Creative Robotics Lab. She works as a lecturer at the University of Arts Linz and a University Assistant in the Master’s program Art & Science at the University of Applied Arts Vienna (dieAngewandte). Her research focuses on data storytelling of living organisms, fungi-inspired biocomputing and (non)-human interactions with industrial robotics. She develops sensor-based methods and living materials within bio arts and biofabrication, to explore and research meaningful interactions between humans, non-human organisms, and technology.

Noor’s work has been exhibited and performed at various venues and festivals, including the Ars Electronica Festival (AT), Festival X (UAE), ISEA (FR), Kuandu Museum of Fine Arts(TW) and Theater Rotterdam (NL). She has received several recognitions for her work, such as an Honorary Mention from Prix Ars Electronica(AT), YouFab Global Creative Award (JP), and the New Media Architecture Biennale Award (CA).
