My writing is primarily focused on emergent trends and discussions of research-creation and feminist art-based practices.


The following book chapters, journal articles, papers, exhibition catalogues and other publications contribute to a growing body of feminist media production in the arts and humanities. Collectively, the works demonstrate collaboratively shaped production methods, intersectional and experimental approaches to performance, improvisation, sound, media art, film, and the human body in relation to the landscape and domestic spheres.
