Hi, I'm an #urban researcher interested in how #comparative approaches can reshape the ways we understand #place, #urbantheory & theory-making. This led me to study art spaces & #biennials in cities like #Beijing #Berlin #Dakar #Taipei. I also find #urbanChina research a perennial curiosity in terms of its relationship to exceptionalism & urban canon. Currently reading #crueloptimism, thinking about #everydaycrisis & employed at Dept of #Geography, University of #Zurich.
