Becoming-Critically Spatial: Björk
This research explores the intersection of artistic practice, spatial theory, and popular culture through the lens of Jane Rendell’s Critical Spatial Practice and Deleuze and Guattari’s concepts of ‘becoming’ and ‘haecceity,’ using Björk’s boundary-pushing artistry to examine spatiality within pop-cultural works.

The Post-Orgy Condition
In our state of mass consumption, the post-orgy condition confronts the tension between excess and liberation. Surfacing through a body of practice-based work, this research explores the relationship between liberated excess and consumption, using Berlin’s techno subculture as a case study to speculate on new socio-spatial typologies and a future architecture of collective decompression in a post-capitalist ruin.
