On fandoms, fanfiction and breaking the canon <3
In this project I focus on researching fan practices and, specifically, the phenomenon of fanfiction: those fan narratives that affect and transform official content, understanding it as a practice of affective and romantic research proper to the queer experience, one that actively resists being capitalised. Analysing the phenomenon leads me to wonder how the syntactic, structural and affective features of the fanfic are able to influence artistic and curatorial production, contributing new creative methodologies.
This research has taken many forms over the years: from essays, installations, lectures and publications to various affective essays.
