About

I hold a PhD in Sociology from the University of País Vasco (UPV), a BA in Sociology from the University of Buenos Aires (UBA), and a MA in Philosophy of History from the University Autónoma de Madrid (UAM). I was Doctoral Researcher at Spanish National Research Council (CSIC, 2009-2013) and Visiting Researcher at the Center for Place, Culture and Politics (CUNY, New York), the Centre for Research Architecture (Goldmisths College, London), the Freie Universität Berlin (FU, Berlin) and the University of Konstanz (Germany). I have co-organized the International Conferences “Spatialities of Exception, Violence, and Memory” (Madrid, 2012) and “Thinking Memory through Space: Materiality, Representation and Imagination” (London, 2013). I am one of the editors of the book “Space and the Memories of Violence. Landscapes of Erasure, Disappearance and Exception" (Palgrave, forthcoming).

My research focuses on the social production of space, and in particularly in the constitution of imaginary geographies in contexts of political violence. In my doctoral research, I have analysed how subjects live and imagine the “spaces of disappearance” in the aftermath of military dictatorship in Argentina (1975-1983). Actually, I am a postdoctoral fellow from Fondation Fyssen (2014-2016) at the EHESS-IRIS and a full-time researcher at the ERC project Corpses of Mass Violence & Genocide.
