Dr Annalisa Sonzogni

About

I am a visual artist working with photography and film in the field of architecture with a specific interest in site-specific installation. My installations are immersive environments that create a bridge between functional and imaginary spaces. I've done extensive research on the relationship between photography and the built environment, focusing in particular on issues of scale, perception and representation. I have a keen interest in interdisciplinary research. 

I have been teaching in Critical and Historical Studies at Kingston School of Art since 2015.  I have previously held teaching positions at University for the Creative Arts, Anglia Ruskin University and London South Bank University.

I remain active in the field of photography research as co-convener of Ph: The Photography Research Network, a network of academics working in the field of photography and film.

I was artist-in-residence at T.A.J & SKE Projects in Bangalore; Gasworks in London and École Nationale Supérieure de la Photographie in Arles. 

Alongside solo exhibitions at the Italian Cultural Institute in Mexico City; Casa del Fascio in Italy; Pescheria Visual Arts Centre, Pesaro and the former Lilian Baylis School in London, I have exhibited in group exhibitions at Stills Scotland's Centre for Photography, Edinburgh; Four Corners gallery, London; Fondazione Sandretto Re Rebaudengo, Italy; Museum Folkwang, Germany and Le Botanique, Belgium.

Areas of research interest:

• perception, experience and representation of space 
• the representation of the city
• the interior in architecture
• display and exhibition
