My research traces how modern and contemporary Latin American literature and visual arts engage critically with environmental histories of extraction and political violence. My interdisciplinary scholarship bridges environmental humanities, political ecology, literary theory, and visual studies. In my doctoral dissertation, I trace how contemporary photographers and poets reclaim Latin American deserts as sites of environmental necromancy, ecologies binding the living and the dead, to contest neoliberal extraction.My academic writing appears in Revista Chilena de Literatura and Revista de Estudios Hispánicos, among other academic journals. In the summer of 2025, I served as a Curatorial Fellow at El Museo del Barrio in New York City. I hold a B.A. and an M.A. in Literature, with a minor in Philosophy, from Universidad de los Andes in Bogotá, Colombia. In addition to my academic research, I am a multidisciplinary artist.
