My research reflects an eclectic combination of interests in the cultural and political field. I am particularly interested in the role of cultural organizations; how they navigate and seek to influence societal institutions, express and balance their political interests and respond to global challenges and national debates.

In light of the heated debate about immigration and national identity in the Nordic countries, my current research project asks how national galleries and cultural history museums – the very organizations we visit to understand and affirm our national identity –  narrate and exhibit their art and artefacts in this debate.

The project is part of ReNEW (Reimagining Norden in an Evolving World), which is funded by NordForsk.
