Background

About Asu Aksu

Deep down, I'm a curious and intellectually adventurous individual, dedicated to continuous learning across a range of fields. My adaptable skill set is like an open-source toolkit; my goal is to inspire others and get inspired while fostering positive transformations. My journey began with a BA in Business Management, and since then, I've built a dynamic career spanning advertising, PR, and entertainment, acquiring valuable expertise across diverse roles. My passion for artistic processes led me to delve into fashion design, where I established my own label in 2009. I've actively contributed to numerous projects, festivals, and shows, consistently pushing creative boundaries. To further enrich my fashion knowledge, I pursued an MA in Critical Fashion Practices at ArtEZ in the Netherlands. I thrived as a lecturer and workshop facilitator, sharing my extensive experiences and expertise in artistic research. I also excelled in educational project management, ensuring successful execution. Today, I focus on the process of creativity itself and its roots, as well as how to trigger creative thinking in artists, designers, scientists, and engineers alike. As an educator/facilitator, I offer workshops and entire lecture modules on how we think and invent. As a designer, I inspire teams of inventors or provide physical spaces for them to strive in.
