Licence: History and Theory of Art - Art and Civilisation Magister: Art History Magister: Cultural Anthropology Docteur: Interart Studies (Freie Universitaet Berlin, 2006-2009) Her research interrogates Contemporary Art through Conceptualism , Heritage , New and Social Museology , and Urban Space . She investigates how conceptual art methodologies can disrupt traditional museum hierarchies, emphasizing social inclusion and the political dimensions of heritage display. Her work challenges colonial frameworks in museology while exploring art's capacity to reimagine urban memory and community engagement through critical spatial practices. Analysis of her 2022-2024 publications reveals three dominant trends: (1) Conceptual art as a radical tool for museum transformation, focusing on object display and institutional critique; (2) Multi-level sustainability education integrating art, territorial knowledge, and global citizenship; (3) Sociomuseological approaches examining artist-museum-community dynamics through case studies like Cosmopolis. Her work consistently positions contemporary art as an active agent in decolonizing heritage institutions and creating participatory knowledge ecosystems. At CeiED, she leads interdisciplinary research connecting art education with social inclusion. Her prior positions include researcher at Imera (Aix Marseille University) and Fondation Maison des Sciences de l’Homme, Paris (2017-2019), where she developed projects on ritual performativity and cosmopolitan spaces. Her curatorial practice manifests in the EXODUS STATIONS series examining migration narratives through cultural interfaces.
