- I teach in the New Earth department of Social practices at the Willem de Kooning Academy. New Earth has a focus on critically understanding and decolonising ecology and post-capitalist design. I see this as both enriching and being an integral part of my broader practice.

Together, under this cipher, we are interested in experimental forms of assistance, collaboration, authorship and exhibition-making.

- I also hold a research position for Social Practices. Initially this involved developing my own proposed research trajectory into interrogating myths of separability concocted under modernity and exploring alternatives. Within this broad context I focused specifically on researching cultural constructions of purity and toxicity.

01-09-2020 t/m 29-02-2020
- In samenwerking met: School of Commons Zurich
- Locatie: Switzerland, Zurich
- Research/ Writing commission, 2020 (intro & five essays). Explores contamination and loss of boundaries, through the concept of 'Miasma' (a pre-germ-theory explanation of disease). Miasma actually means 'pollution' but could also be foul odours, fog, mist and noxious gases that spread both ill-health and immorality through the air. Miasma theory is holistic, a relational and negotiated approach to our environment, its postulates that if our surroundings are not healthy, neither are we.
