THESIS REQUEST:
Please note that the Master's thesis requires at least one year's work and should therefore be requested well in advance and handed in sufficiently in advance of the upload deadline. This is in order to allow your supervisor to carefully revise the text and leave a margin for possible re-reading/re-writing.
I cannot supervise any more theses until the Summer of 2026.
Anyone wishing to graduate with a thesis in Sociology of the arts must have taken the examination, and if the thesis includes an empirical part, have adequate knowledge of the methodology. Those wishing to wirite a thesis in Critical Animal Studies must have the approach clear, thus attending the CAS course is strongly recommended.

Her transdisciplinary scholarship encompasses Cultural and Visual Studies, Sociology of the Arts and of New Media, STSs, Cyber- and Techno- Feminism and Critical Animal Studies.
She worked extensively on locative media employing qualitative methods and studying the geolocative performances of identity, and teh relation between spatiality and representation. Her current research interests encompass animal sociology and interspecies sociality, the relations among human and nonhuman agents, animals and machines, in contemporary technospaces, feminist art and media, and the politics of representation with a focus on contemporary iconoclasm.
She has been working on Donna Haraway for many years and has published several academic and non-academic essays on her thought. Her last book, Bestiario Haraway. Per un femminismo multispecie (Mimesis, 2020), focuses on Haraway’s theory of companion species and nonhuman animals as social agents. She also published Diffractive Technospaces. A Feminist Approach to the Mediations of Space and Representation (Routledge, 2015) and edited Culture della differenza. Femminismo, visualità e studi postcoloniali (Utet Università, 2008). With Marco Santoro, she edited the Italian edition of Sociologia digitale by Deborah Lupton (Pearson 2018). She has co-edited and co-translated in Italian the book Making Kin Not Population (Clarke and Haraway eds., 2018), published by DeriveApprodi (2022).
She attended many conferences in Italy and abroad, and published several essays in journals like First Monday, Feminist Media Studies, Sociologica, Studi Culturali, and online in the collective blog of the Technoculture Research Unit (TRU). She regularly acts as a peer reviewer for national and international journals.
She is a member of the research group TRU, born inside the Centre for Postcolonial and Gender Studies of the University of Naples L’Orientale, of the editorial board of the journal Studi Culturali and Lagoonscapes.
