Olga Stadnuk is an interdisciplinary designer and artist investigating the intersection of somatic experience and computational systems. Her practice explores how technology can create conditions for attunement, toward ourselves, others, and the spaces we inhabit.

Her work employs responsive interfaces reacting to gesture, voice, and presence, to create immersive installations that shift attention from quantification to experience. She investigates the space between data and feeling, asking: how might technology support forms of connection that cannot be reduced to metrics?

In parallel to her studio practice, Olga serves as a Lecturer at Shenkar College, where she teaches AI-driven design. She is also an active researcher at PADLlab, focusing on Post-Anthropocentric design methodologies. She holds a B.Des from Shenkar College and completed an exchange term at the Design Academy Eindhoven.

Her work has been presented in a solo exhibition in Israel, and she has exhibited internationally as a member of the collectives Reaction Time and Connecting Stations, platforms through which she explores collaborative research and public interventions. Previously, she worked as a Product Designer and UX Researcher at a startup specializing in digital identity. This industry experience deeply informs her current research into the fragile boundary between trust, surveillance, and bodily interaction in digital spaces.
