She will be working on her research project The Day the Earth Caught Data (Ep. 4), joining Prof. Jill Miller’s studio space. The project examines digital systems, eco-spatial narratives, and socio-technical imaginaries, aligning strongly with the department’s critical environmental approaches, and experimental artistic research. She will be involved in presentations, lectures and exhibitions, engaging with graduate students and faculty whose work intersects with photography, media studies, digital culture, and the politics of image making.
