I am a dance historian by training, working as a researcher at the intersection of dance history, cultural history, critical theory and aesthetics, and as a curator between discursive, embodied and performative practices. The principles guiding my work are constant learning and unlearning, pluralising partial perspectives, interrogating the impacts of format on thought and ideas, negotiating strategic choices within ethical positionings, and exploring the ethical, political, affective, sensorial, epistemic impacts of aesthetics.
I am currently employed as post-doctoral researcher at the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna.
Upcoming: Conscripted Feelings - June 6 & 7, Atelier Haydnstraße (Haydnstraße 4, 5020, Salzburg)
Two days of workshops, talks, films and more to explore the politicisation of feelings - both sensations and emotions - and, maybe, find strategies of reclaiming them.
Curated for and with tanzbuero Salzburg.
With: Araba Evelyn Johnston-Arthur, imani rameses, Karin Michalski, Julieta Jacobi, Logan Smilges, Tomaž Simatović, Zuzana Ernst.
