Paula Caspão (1968, Portugal) lives and works between Lisbon and Paris, in critical indeterminacy between forms of theoretical research, transversal artistic practices and socio-political thinking. She has worked extensively on the economies and infrastructures of research, on the modes of producing knowledge and their specific sensoria, addressing the infra-ordinary dimensions of reading, translation and editing. She is currently rehearsing cine-fabulation practices to interrogate the forms of extractivism and socio-environmental devastation implicated in the production of knowledge and of History, as well as in the maintenance of its institutions, technologies and political fictions. Assistant Professor of Artistic Studies at the University of Lisbon, she is a full researcher at Centre for Theatre Studies (CET-FLUL), associated to the Institute of Contemporary History (IHC-UNL). She holds a PhD in philosophy (epistemology and aesthetics) from the University of Paris Ouest Nanterre (2010) and was a visiting scholar at the Department of Performance Studies, Tisch School of the Arts, New York University (2018).
