Mission
MARNIX creates a sustainable future for nature, people, and society. His mission centers on designing encounters and interventions that raise awareness and spark action around personal, social, and ecological themes. Through interactive installations and playful experiences, MARNIX forges paths where conventional systems fall short. This opens up space for imagination, reflection, and joy — fertile ground for growth, for stirring thought, and for healing where it’s needed most.

Vision
MARNIX believes in the power of imagination as a driving force for both social and inner change. By weaving together art, technology, nature and social issues, new forms of connection, awareness and dialogue come to life. In collaboration with visionaries, makers, care professionals and communities, MARNIX creates spaces and moments that not only touch people, but invite them to move along. Not striving for perfection, but for meaningful progress, toward a world that’s respectful, creative and in harmony with nature and each other. Beyond the boxes. Beyond the systems.

“Since childhood, I have found it important to treat Spaceship Earth with love and advocate for leaving it more beautiful. In my work, I incorporate Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) number 13: Climate Action. I tackle significant challenges by making them small and tangible. Understanding the essence and recognizing how it functions is crucial to moving from the small scale to the larger picture once again.”
