Teaching is a central part of my work as an art historian, and I approach the classroom as a space for interdisciplinary inquiry. Drawing from literary studies, the history of science, and environmental history, I encourage students to think beyond traditional disciplinary boundaries. At the same time, I believe that studying art requires direct engagement with it—not just through books or slides but in person. I am committed to taking students to museums, inviting contemporary artists into the classroom, and introducing historical art-making methods to deepen students’ understanding of artistic practice.
