I am an art historian and a writer. I look closely at works of art and the people who made them, and engage critically with how they have been interpreted. My aim is to reveal the telling distortions and blind spots that persist in the present, and build new feminist alternatives. I focus mostly on modern art between 1860 and 1970, especially in France.
During my academic career, I have held various competitive research fellowships and teaching positions. These include a Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions postdoctoral fellowship at Sciences Po in Paris, a research fellowship at Downing College in Cambridge, and another at the Humboldt University of Berlin. I have led and taught full courses on a wide range of art historical subjects at the Universities of Cambridge and York, and the Courtauld Institute of Art.
My first book, Pierre Bonnard Beyond Vision, was published in 2022 with Yale University Press. It is based on a decade of research, including my doctorate at the University of Oxford. My other writing ranges between scholarly and public-facing.
I have experience of working with galleries and other institutions, and recently spent three years as a trustee of the Heong Gallery in Cambridge.
I am currently working on new projects and writing commissioned essays, alongside being a full-time parent to my baby son.
