Rowynn Dumont
Rowynn Dumont is an interdisciplinary researcher, educator, and artist whose work investigates how we perceive, process, and make meaning of our worlds. Operating across psychology, design, and cultural systems, Dumont examines the structures that shape human experience—from cognitive load and sensory environments to narrative frameworks and collective sense-making.
Their research spans UX research, experimental psychology, and creative practice, with particular attention to perception, cognition, and neurodivergence. This work unfolds in both traditional academic contexts and alternative settings: university classrooms, community-based programs serving neurodivergent and low-income populations, independent workshops, and public cultural platforms. Their applied projects and pedagogy have reached audiences internationally, translating complex research into accessible frameworks for diverse learners and communities.
Parallel to this academic and applied work, Dumont maintains an active practice in visual art, installation, and cultural programming. These creative projects function as research systems in their own right—spaces to test ideas about perception, embodiment, and collective engagement outside institutional constraints. Through this constellation of practices, Dumont explores how we construct understanding across different modes of knowing, learning, and being together.
