CURRENT
My work currently centers on writing and curriculum development.I am actively seeking a long-term institutional home to contribute my applied research and writing — let’s connect.
︎︎︎ Below are snapshots of a selection of materials from the curriculum, publications, outputs, and facilitation spaces. Contexts include the New Museum’s
NEW INC, Centre for Nordic Otherwise, and Monash University. See more.
What do you produce?
I produce resources for revealing the precise connections between creative practice and social impact — also known as art and politics or artistic practice and knowledge production.
I offer tailored tools and guidance for professionals, educators, and students who work at the intersection of creative practice and politics. Organizations and research groups can explore this through my published essays, book chapters, and journal articles, as well as through materials drawn from my teaching.

How do you do this?
I operate an ecosystem that involves 3 elements:
- Writing: Ongoing research papers on politics and artistic knowledge
- Curriculum: A course tailored for politically-engaged professional designers, performers, artists, Master’s and PhD students
- Book: Doing Creative Work From Your Political Body, Forthcoming from Set Margins' Press
Together, they create a triad designed to advance politically engaged creative work.
What do you focus on?
I study the behind-the-scenes aspects of critical and creative practice. I work alongside practitioners to foreground their first-hand experiences, embodied knowledge, and the interior, often invisible dimensions of political work.
My work sticks up for the epistemic depths of the actual hands-on making that practitioners do—especially in environments where the theorist, curator, critic, and historian are sought out for sense-making.
Proposed writing projects for 2026 - 2030

Proposed writing projects for 2026 - 2030
- Interview series featuring 100 critical artists on theory and practice (a continuation of the interlude chapter in Doing Creative Work From Your Political Body)
- Co-authoring papers with practitioner-researchers who participate in the Curriculum
- Calibrating Theory and Practice, a meditation on the mechanics behind Doing Creative Work From Your Political Body.
Why does this matter?
My research provides organizations, educators, and institutions with the evidence needed to understand and prove the role of creativity in social change. It helps secure funding, design more effective programs, strengthen educational approaches, and collaborate across fields with clarity and purpose.
For practitioners, my work highlights the value of the intangible, supports deeper political commitments, strengthens creative practice, and improves how they communicate their impact.

WHERE DO YOU WORK?
I work internationally and anti-disciplinarily.
Since 2022, I have been based in Aarhus, Denmark. I have been invited and hired to do my work in four continents and across many fields. See the indexed list of where I’ve worked.
