biography

Professor Elio Caccavale teaching practice, scholarship, and research contribute to the ethical, social, and environmental dimensions of scientific knowledge and technology, as well as to the field of More-than-Human Design. Elio is the co-author, alongside Professor Gordon Hush, of the forthcoming edited volume Design Beyond the Human: Transdisciplinary Conversations About the Planet (Bloomsbury, 2026). This collection of essays by international scholars, designers, and engaged citizens invites reflection on how design - understood in a more-than-human way - might reimagine its relationship with capitalism and contemporary lifestyles. Elio's research projects have been exhibited internationally at, for example, the Museum of Modern Art in New York, the Design Museum Triennale in Milan, the Science Museum in London, the National Taiwan Museum of Fine Arts in Taipei, the Design and Applied Arts Museum in Lausanne, the Royal Institution in London, and the Israel Museum in Jerusalem.
