I work within the interdisciplinary fields of linguistic ethnography and philosophical anthropology, and my overall research question is: How do places come into being through everyday life practices, and how do language as local practice play a part in this world formation? The project aims at developing a combined understanding of language-place connections. A methodological interest follows from this: How can we study language-place connections?
The topics of my research are language, writing, space and place (making), and movement. Throughout my project, I consider some of the aesthetic, material, spatial, social, and existential dimensions of everyday language.
