CV

I am an independent curator, researcher, and writer with a BA in Linguistics and a BA in Art History from the University of Bucharest, as well as an MFA in Curating from Goldsmiths, University of London. Based in Berlin, I work independently, collaborating with various institutions locally and internationally. My curatorial practice is rooted in a passion for socially engaged projects, informed by feminist theories and values, and shaped by a particular curiosity for performance practices—or, as Peggy Phelan describes them, the living arts—that embody the ephemeral and transformative potential of live engagement.

I teach and mentor recurrently at HZT Berlin (part of UdK), where I am leading the seminar Curatorial Entanglements. Additionally, I contributed to the establishment of E-WERK Luckenwalde, an arts institution in Brandenburg. This former brown coal power plant has been transformed into a sustainable energy provider, redirecting its income from electricity sales to commissioning and producing artworks.
