Texts have been published in various formats including catalogue essays, magazine articles, conference papers and lectures. The texts explore themes related to contemporary practice, often relating to work by women artists.
Un-published essays have dealt with the problem of illusion in a painterly approach to minimalist theories of objecthood, a technological approach to sublime reference, and comedy in recent sculptural installation.
Seminar series at the UCA have been developed with second year students through a successive series of topics, including 'Aura, Entropy, Informe and Abjection'; 'Interpretations of Perception from Descartes and Kant to Lacan and Klein'; 'Theories of Fetishism in Marx, Freud and Baudrillard'; and 'Archival Forms in Contemporary Visual Practice'.
