Research and teaching
My current research explores how interconnected partnerships between schools, arts organisations, and community spaces, framed by the Goldsmiths Artsmark programme, can challenge inequity and cultivate inclusive, anti-oppressive arts learning for young people. Drawing on critical feminist, anti-colonial, and relational theories, alongside my recent article on arts education in "third spaces," it investigates cultural collaborations, embodied pedagogies, and youth-led practices to foster critical consciousness and social transformation. Through participatory action research, arts-based methods, and multi-sited ethnography, I co-create frameworks with teachers, practitioners, and young people to strengthen equitable collaborations across education ecosystems.
As a visiting lecturer in art education at the Institute of Education, UCL, and a member of the Goldsmiths Artsmark team, I support schools in developing action research and impact assessment methods to embed arts, culture, and creativity into their communities, directly translating my research into practical tools for achieving Artsmark status and driving pedagogical change.
