RESEARCH INTERESTS

My main research interests are the study of materiality in contemporary Catalan artistic and performance practices as well as dance, investigating the ways in which moving bodies and inanimate objects relate to natural, built and virtual environments. Sensitive to the historicity, vibrancy and location of living and inert matter, I explore how objects and beings interconnect with cultural and geopolitical spaces. Over the years, I have taught many aspects of Catalan and Spanish culture at universities in the UK and Spain, in particular, Catalan cinema and visual and performance art in its historical, social and political context.
