Ilona Gaynor, 2022

Ilona Gaynor (born 1986) is a British designer, artist and writer[1]. Gaynor’s work focuses on critical themes addressing legal language, corporate operations, labor, contemporary economic complexities and their narrative, semiotic or cinematic constructions. She has been described as being situated with the field of speculative design and known to "ground speculative design, squarely in the realities of economic speculation. Her scenarios demonstrate the extent to which fissures, chaos, and collapse are inherent in, not deviations from, networked globalized finance."[2]
