Research interests
I have been researching since 1998, completed my doctorate in 2004, became a professor in 2011, and have led several projects. A common feature of these projects is that they are all designed within a participatory research paradigm and revolve around equality, aesthetics, and societal participation.
Themes I am particularly interested in: Applied theater, art & health, disability art, inclusive research, pragmatic aesthetics, poetry and theater as a means of research communication, drama education, education policy, everyday consequences of Covid, performance ethnography, Arctic humanities, dementia, CRPD, and community science.
I am part of the Arctic Center for Welfare and Disability Research https://uit.no/research/asvf and the research group Artful Dementia Research Lab; https://uit.no/research/adlab
