I’m a researcher and writer interested in the political economy of logistics. Currently, I’m a PhD Candidate at the London School of Economics, in the Department of Geography and Environment. I’m looking into the Transpolar Sea Route: a speculative shipping lane that may open up across the arctic as a result of melting sea ice, one that would remap the world’s trade flows.
With Miriam Matthiessen, I am part of the artist-research duo Liquid Time, writing and making films on shipping, finance and the temporalities of maritime worlds.
I maintain an online platform mapping seafarer abandonment, with friends.
I used to teach at the Royal College of Art, and the Critical Practice Studio in Dheisheh, Palestine. I was also part of the Grupo de Investigações Territoriais, an interdisciplinary research initiative dedicated to supporting environmental struggles.
I’m usually open to other freelance work: research, writing, and video editing.
For projects, commissions (or just to say hello), get in touch.
