About me

With a background in social anthropology, cultural studies and sociology, my research effort is directed to a range of pressing contemporary questions. How can we extend the role, and benefits of art to more people and more places in contemporary life? How can we grow creative expression? How can we put the festive back in festivals?

How can we create the kind of cities we want and need rather than those produced merely by unplanned, unthinking development? How can we create the kinds of lives we want to live, and build a sense of belonging for all rather than accept the socially isolated, precarious and lonely worlds of contemporary individualism?

And how can we live better lives with our non-human allies and... Read more

About me

And how can we live better lives with our non-human allies and neighbours? We are only just beginning to understand the creative potential of new kinds of relationships with non-human kin, and it is as exciting as it is urgent and health promoting.

My research seeks to identify, document and understand the nature of these problems as well as work with partners to seek and evaluate new strategies. My research is characterised by a keen interest in the application of contemporary theory, especially using forms of ‘the new materialism’, embodied perspectives, contemporary ritual, mobilities and posthumanism. From social anthropology, I use very intensive methods involving participant observation, biographical interviewing and immersive fieldwork combined with archival, data base and survey research, that derives from my sociology background.

In recent years, my research has looked intensively at a range of museums and cities around the world that have attempted to break free from the limitations of conventional models.

I am opening up a new field of research on art tourism. Hitherto buried under the overcrowded category of ‘cultural tourism’, this increasingly significant flow of travellers (which includes a significant number of art world creatives) drives cultural exchange, creativity and innovation on a global scale. We know very little about it, yet few cities are not trying to attract it.

I have begun to develop new work on festivals and markets through a study of the relatively few that are super successful and those that survived the purges of traditional festivals and street markets in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.

I have pioneered new theoretical and research work on loneliness across the life course, its connections to different kinds of cities and space and its connections with gender cultures, the public sphere, place, housing, domestic relations, companion animals, new technologies and health.

I am investigating creative new uses of cultural spaces in contemporary cites, from wastelands, empty high street shops, churches and cathedrals, school grounds, pop-ups, cultural spaces of the nightime (beyond the bars and clubs that currently dominate it) and the streets themselves (e.g. through the rescue and recovery of carnival to build new forms of social solidarity and belonging around them).

If you are interested in collaborating with me, as an academic, honours student, postgraduate, industry/government, poet, writer, producer or director or whatever, then please do get in touch.
