Education

MA (Cambridge), MSt DPhil (Oxford)

Since my DPhil, I have been a Visiting Lecturer in the History of Art Department and college tutor at Christ Church, a Visiting Tutor in Modern Art and Theory at the Ruskin School of Art, and a lecturer in English Literature and Literary Theory at Brasenose.

My research concerns the construction of meaning in late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century painting, with particular interests in the notion of materiality; materiality and theatricality; reconsidering the concept of narrative in visual art; and painting as critical, philosophic and theological investigation.
