Silvia Kurr: Unruly Waste in Art and Science: Mediating the Material Agency of Discarded Things

IMS: Estonian Research Council funds three-year postdoc project

Researcher Silvia Kurr, University of Tartu, has been awarded a postdoctoral research grant from the Estonian Research Council to work on a three-year project at the Linnaeus University Centre for Intermedial and Multimodal Studies (IMS), under the supervision of Professor Jørgen Bruhn.

Her project, titled Unruly Waste in Art and Science: Mediating the Material Agency of Discarded Things, explores how artistic and scientific media challenge the conventional view of waste as a passive object, foregrounding its capacity to produce harmful and unexpected effects.
