About

I am an art historian, researcher, writer, and educator. My research interests concern black diaspora art history in the Nordic region and beyond from the late 18th century until the present.  

I am currently a PhD candidate at the University of Copenhagen’s Department of Arts and Cultural Studies where I am completing my dissertation titled "Bodies of Work: Black Artistic Practices in Denmark and the Politics of Embodiment, 1980s–2020s." The dissertation places black  aesthetics in Denmark in dialogue with transnational debates in black feminist art theory, queer of color critique, and performance studies. 

In 2024 I co-founded the curatorial platform G/HOSTING together with Mai Takawira. G/HOSTING uses curatorial, editorial, educational, and dissemination projects to activate critical and reparative approaches to ongoing colonial histories. Through collaborations with artists, authors and cultural institutions, G/HOSTING facilitates interventions into exhibitions, collections, and public spaces. 

As of February 2026 I am working as Director and Curator at Astrid Noacks Atelier, an independent space for artistic experimentation, knowledge sharing, and community building in Nørrebro, Copenhagen. 

At the University of Copenhagen, I am a member of the research cluster Nordic Models , the research group Thinking Photography Today, and formerly a member of the research network The Art of Nordic Colonialism. I am a member of the editorial board of Periskop – Forum for kunsthistorisk debat.
