Moncunill explores how artistic interventions can challenge institutional frameworks and transform everyday spaces. Her work examines the ideological dimensions of spatial representations, the relationship between leisure and work, and the political implications of scientific conventions. She investigates how scale, temporality, and representation intersect in cultural production and urban environments.
Moncunill's publications reveal a consistent focus on museum practices, spatial politics, and artistic interventions. Her work often examines the relationship between institutional frameworks and creative practices, with particular attention to how everyday experiences become sites of cultural production. She frequently employs interdisciplinary approaches that bridge visual arts, cultural theory, and social practice.
