About

I am a Senior Lecturer in the School of History of Art at The University of Edinburgh. My research focuses on late 20th and 21st art and mediation, including lens-based practice, participatory work and realism. I am a Research Fellow with the ‘Feminism, Art, Maintenance’ (2019 – 2023) project, funded by the Swedish Research Council, and the Academic Lead for the University’s Contemporary Art Research Collection. I am currently working on the next phase of the collaborative exhibition and research project Life Support: Forms of Care in Art and Activism with Glasgow Women’s Library and a book called Contemporary Art and Capitalist Life supported by a Leverhulme Research Fellowship.
