معرفی
Esther Teichmann is an artist and writer working with photography across still and moving image at the Royal College of Art. She serves as Head of Programme for the MRes and Coordinator for Critical & Historical Studies within the School of Arts & Humanities. Previously, she was Senior Lecturer in Photography at the University of the Arts London, Guest Professor at the California College of the Arts in San Francisco, and visiting tutor in Critical and Historical Studies at the RCA.
Her research interests focus on the relationships between loss, desire and the imaginary. As part of the Health & Care Research Cluster, she explores experimental arts and humanities methods that examine socio-political complexities of health and care from human, more-than-human and planetary perspectives.
Teichmann's recent museum exhibitions include Mondschwimmen at Zephyr/REM in Mannheim, Heavy the Sea at Transformer Station in Cleveland, and La Movida at HOME in Manchester. Her visual works and writing monograph 'Fulmine' was published by Stanley/Barker in 2018.
She has collaborated with composer Deirdre Gribbin, writer Carol Mavor, and artist Marvin Gaye Chetwynd. Her curatorial research projects include 'Staging Disorder,' which she co-edited and co-curated with artist Christopher Stewart.
Teichmann currently supervises research student Sofie Layton and continues to develop her practice at the intersection of photography, writing, and theoretical inquiry into emotional and psychological dimensions of human experience.
