- Über mich
-
I am an art historian and a PhD candidate at the International Graduate Centre for the Study of Culture (GCSC) in Gießen. Before relocating to Germany, I have completed my degrees in architecture (BA) and art history (MA) in Glasgow, Scotland. My scholarly focus lies predominantly on the Central-Eastern European painting and, in line with those interests, my PhD project explores the phenomenon of ‘orientalisation’ and/ or ‘exotisation’ of the 19th century Polish art in the West. I am also active in the fields of queer and feminist art and ludology. Professionally, I am a member of the Graduate Studies Team at the GCSC and the Editorial Team of the On-Culture magazine.
Dissertation Title: Orientalisation of the 19th century Eastern-European Art on the Case Study of the Polish Munich School
