In 2016, Stefanie worked with Giorgia Lupi to write a book called “Dear Data.” They spent a year making hand-drawn pictures out of their own personal data. It won the “Most Beautiful” project award at the Information is Beautiful Awards in 2015. It was even up for a big award at the Design Museum in 2016. The Museum of Modern Art decided to keep “Dear Data” forever as part of their collection. In collaboration with Miriam Quick, Stefanie authored another book titled “I am a book. I am a portal to the universe,” which is filled with interactive pictures and charts that make learning about science exciting. The book was recognized by the Financial Times in 2020 as one of its best books and also received an award from the Royal Society in 2021. Stefanie has worked with famous people such as Yayoi Kusama, Greta Thunberg, and Haruki Murakami, creating color books that blend data with art in a unique and visually appealing way. Stefanie’s art has been shown in MoMA, the Centre Pompidou, the V&A, and elsewhere. She also runs workshops that are easy for everyone, no matter how much they know about art or data.
