Research Interests

For me, doing research means training the imagination, connecting different ways of thinking and disciplines and daring to push methodological boundaries. As a transdisciplinary framework,  I use systemic models and approaches from embodied cognition. 

Current focus: user/visitor experience in museums and gardens * mixed method designs in empirical studies of art and culture * cognitive semiotics with a special interest in intermodal analogy and metaphor in multimedia text
