Biography
Esther Rizo-Casado serves as a lecturer at ESIC University in Madrid and a researcher at the Complutense University of Madrid (UCM). In addition to her academic roles, she is an accomplished artist and an active member of the XenoVisual Studies collective. With a deep commitment to advancing the integration of women in art and technology, she fosters community engagement through collaborative interdisciplinary projects, supported by the Spanish Ministry of Equality and the UCM Equality Unit (2023-24). Rizo-Casado is the author of a seminal book on life-centered design (2021) and has produced speculative writings that investigate into the intersections of xenofeminism and emerging visual technologies. Her current residency at the contemporary creation center Medialab Matadero Madrid (2023-24) explores innovative perspectives on technology as an enhancer of the boundaries of current hegemonic realities.
