Currently preparing a Post-doctoral project on the role of images in contemporary culture, I received a PhD in the Social Sciences from the University of Antwerp in 2018 for a research on the relation between the city, photography and modernity in the works of two 19th century photographers: Edmond Fierlants, from Antwerp, and Militão Augusto de Azevedo, from São Paulo.

Stemming mainly from historical materialism, my research interests extend from political and anthropological theory up to visual culture, modernity and capitalism, philosophy of religion and literature.
