Areas of responsibility
My research focuses on Theodor W. Adorno's aesthetics, in particular his comprehension of the relationship between art, nature, and animals. Other research interests include early German romanticism and idealism, especially Hölderlin and Schelling. I have been Visiting Scholar at the Department of Philosophy, Columbia University (2010) and at the Faculty of English, University of Cambridge (2014).
I have also been researcher and teacher at the Department of Philosophy and at the Centre for Gender Research, Uppsala University (2014–2017), as well as at Södertörn University, Stockholm (2012, 2013 and 2018–2021).
