I’m a Lecturer in Philosophy of Art at the University of Liverpool.

​

My academic work is in contemporary aesthetics, especially on the question of how art can bring about social and political change. I publish in both Philosophy and History of Art journals and collaborate on art projects.

​

Before joining the department at Liverpool in 2018, I was the inaugural Jeffrey Rubinoff Junior Research Fellow at Churchill College, the University of Cambridge. I obtained my doctorate (D.Phil.) from the University of Oxford in 2015.

​

In 2021, I have been selected as a BBC New Generation Thinker. I have also been hosting the Art Against the World podcast, a collaboration with the Liverpool Biennial.

​

At Liverpool, I direct MA in Art, Philosophy and Cultural Institutions.
