In 2007, the British Council awarded me with a Chevening Scholarship to pursue postgraduate studies in the UK. In September 2008 I completed the MA in Critical and Creative Analysis at the Sociology Department of Goldsmiths (dissertation mark: 85%). I am currently doing my PhD in Drama at Queen Mary (University of London) where I have become engaged with a performative paradigm to understand the Argentinean recent past from a novel perspective. I am researching my home-country unusual experience of mourning through an experimental “archive of feelings” that will cover a wide range of genres: visual artwork, memoirs, interviews, films, theatrical and non-theatrical performances. This archive will help me to grasp the formation of a new public culture across different generations. My research interests lie at the core of the untended linkages between theatricality and political intervention, trauma and kinship, body-gendered and queer performance.
