about / research / publications / professional / media
I am an art historian working on late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century British art and history of science. My focus is on women artists, ecology, alternative science, spiritualism, and occultism. I am Lecturer in British Art at the University of Manchester, and also serve as Deputy Associate Director of Research at Durham University’s Centre
for Nineteenth-Century Studies International. Currently, I am writing a book on the artist Evelyn De Morgan (1855–1919).
