Biography

I am Course Director in History of Art and Philosophy at PACE. I am also a Research Associate at Cambridge Digital Humanities, and an Affiliated Lecturer at the English Faculty at Cambridge, where I teach digital visual cultures. Prior to this, I was a Junior Research Fellow in Visual Studies at King's College, Cambridge.

At PACE I have been teaching European modern art and global contemporary art on the Certificate in History of Art since 2020. I also teach introductory courses to Western philosophy and aesthetics for the International Summer Programme.

I am interested in the dialogue between art and technology since the 1960s, and in the light that philosophy can shed on artistic practices. I am currently working on a research project that assesses new understanding of artistic creativity in the age of generative AI.

Before coming to Cambridge, I studied philosophy in France and Germany, and completed a PhD in Art History and Theory at the University of Essex (2015). I taught at the University of Essex between 2015 and 2016 and, since 2016, have taught graduate and undergraduate students on a wide range of subjects at the University of Cambridge.
