Dr Lucy Sabin

I am a British artistic researcher with a radically interdisciplinary background spanning cultural geography, feminist science studies, and environmental humanities. In my creative practice, I blend elements of graphic (web) design, participatory arts, installation design, art-science, and embodied ritual. My recently awarded PhD Aerography is a critical meditation on the concept of air quality, involving local experiences of and creative responses to desert dust, traffic pollution, and sprayed pesticides. My research interests include atmospheres and breathing, exposure, multispecies storytelling, and intersectional feminisms.

Now working as a postdoc with RE4GREEN at Amsterdam UMC, I'm developing training on environmental and climate justice for science and innovation, which involves producing a podcast and short film. I'm co-editor of a forthcoming anthology Chemical Exposures: Toxicity in the Anthropocene with UCL Press, and I have held teaching posts in media, culture, and design at University of Sussex, the University for the Creative Arts, and Arts University Bournemouth. You are welcome to contact me about guest lecturing, collaborations, commissions, or licensing my images for your next event or publication.
