معرفی
Simon Miles is a Senior Lecturer at the School of Arts and Creative Industries, University of East London, specializing in politically engaged performance art and historical interventions.
Research Interests
Miles focuses on contemporary performance art exploring Cold War legacies, particularly the Berlin Wall's socio-political symbolism. His practice combines site-specific installations, multilingual happenings, and public space interventions to examine German division, historical memory, and artistic activism in post-war contexts.
Artistic Output Trends
The Iron Curtain series (2014-2017) demonstrates consistent engagement with Berlin's physical and ideological landscapes through location-based performances at Galilee Church. These works merge historical research with experimental art forms, emphasizing the intersection of political history, public memory, and cross-cultural dialogue in urban environments.
