Raluca Bibiri

Her research projects explore posthumanist methodologies for examining the relationship between visual and material culture and ecosystems, by establishing connections and continuities within the transdisciplinary, expanded epistemic fabric surrounding intersectional feminist issues. Her research encompasses sexual and gender differences, poststructuralist psychoanalysis, matrixial aesthetics, trauma studies, and various forms of visual representation, with an emphasis on the kinetic-performative component—video installation, experimental film, documentary, and fiction. Her recent interests focus on the collaborative environment of the arts, within a space of cohabitation and integration of the more-than-human; the dissolution of disciplinary boundaries and the transmedial opening of the space of representation; transhumanist theories of cyborg corporeality and visuality in the virtual environment.
