Specialising in urban aesthetics and poststructuralist theory, Tina's work looks at how dominant spatial power structures can be analysed and challenged through a psychogeographical and philosophical analysis. Her thesis is a spatial critique of the posthistoric university in the way that it operates under neoliberalism.
Tina has applied Félix Guattari's theory on molecular revolution and schizoanalytic cartography to psychogeography in order to develop her own form of urban critique, schizocartography. Schizocartography enables a process of questioning how space is ordered hierarchically, but also provides a method for revealing marginalised voices.
In 2009 Tina set up Leeds Psychogeography Group, which organises talks and walks for individuals both in and outside the university. She has presented a number of conference papers and also had articles published.
