Barbara Chamberlin

Barbara Chamberlin is a Senior Lecturer at the University of Brighton's School of Humanities and a part-time doctoral student at Central Saint Martins, University of the Arts London. Her primary role involves teaching undergraduate and postgraduate courses, including a dedicated comics analysis module that encourages interdisciplinary student research. She is supervised by Roger Sabin and Ian Horton for her PhD research, which explores representations of British witches and folk horror through collaborative comic anthologies rooted in walking and psychogeography.

Her research interests intersect folklore, feminist narratives, and creative practice, employing collaboration with artists to blend narrative experimentation with geographical and historical exploration. She co-curates the annual Graphic Brighton symposium, promoting comics scholarship. Barbara's work emphasizes interdisciplinary approaches to storytelling, particularly in how spatial experiences inform haunting themes and folkloric reinterpretations.
