Profile
My research focuses on the interconnections of memory and activism during the estallido social protest wave (2019-2020) in Chile and the subsequent constitutional process that it provoked. My research interests include feminist and LGBTQ+ performances, activists' remodelling of urban spaces, the protest symbol Negro Matapacos, a crowdfunded activist museum of the estallido social, and activist memory on Twitter.
