Aadita Chaudhury

Aadita is a researcher, writer and arts practitioner inhabiting the intersection of the arts, science, ecology, and spirituality. Her work is situated within the interdisciplinary and anti-disciplinary spaces facilitated by environmental arts and humanities and science and technology studies, but also lives outside of academic containers, and is shaped by ethnographic approaches, poetic inquiry, embodied methodologies, sonic practices, photography, and encounters with mythology, folklore and ritual, guided by ethics of slow, non-extractive decolonial research. She is especially interested in perspectives from the Global South in relation to technoscientific imaginaries, decolonial, feminist and working-class social movements, and political self-determination. Aadita has conducted research in the US, Canada, the UK, Italy, India and Mexico, attending to multiple intersections of ecology, culture, technology and the arts. Her academic and public facing work has appeared in various publications, including International Relations, Conservation Letters and Al Jazeera. She has worked at the University of Toronto, York University (Canada), and Goldsmiths, University of London in various interdisciplinary and transnational projects, and has been a visiting researcher at University of California, Irvine and Edinburgh College of Art, University of Edinburgh.
