Areas of expertise My current comparative research focuses on the history and theory of fashion and the moving image from a global perspective.
Alongside this work on fashion and moving-image media, I have an established research profile in French cinema studies. French Queer Cinema, my first monograph, was published by Edinburgh University Press in 2008. This was followed by Homo exoticus: race, classe et critique queer, co-written by Maxime Cervulle, published by Armand Colin and INA (Institut national de l’audiovisuel) in 2010. Homo exoticus examines questions of race and same-sexuality in French visual culture.
