About me
Afilliated with the
KTH Environmental Humanities Laboratory
I am working on
ecopoetic breathing in Ibero-American atmospheres
for a monograh (under contract with Routledge Environmental Humanities).
I am also co-editing an anthology of ecopoetry and ecopoetics with Azucena Castro and Santiago Acosta:Ecopoéticas y políticas ecológicas contemporáneas desde el Sur. (Under contract at Brill-Foro Hispánico.)
My Doctoral thesis on how ecopoetry emphasizes song, breathing and air as liberating atmospheric figures for communication and relationships with others and the planet, is available
here.
I run ecopoetry workshops and teach on ecopoetry and ecopoetics at, among others,
Academic Collaboration Chile Sweden (ACCESS)
and
Occupy Climate Change School
.
As an ecopoet, I published
Dia do Não
(2018) about the violence of pig slaughter and the tenderness ingrained in family and interspecies relationships; andEstio (2022) about the environmental destruction of the tourism industry and love in vacations.
I translate the poetry of
Athena Farrokhzad
, with Alejandro Urrutia (2022),
Gary Snyder
, with Margarida Vale de Gato (2017);
John Cage
(2023), Evelyn Reilly and Allison Cobb (forthcoming 2024) into Portuguese.
And I am a contributing editor of the international journal
Venti
on transdisciplinary research on air and atmosphere.
