an independent curator (as one half of the curatorial partnership B+B), a
writer and evaluator of public and socially engaged art and is a lecturer
in arts management in the Media and Cultural Studies Department at Birkbeck,
University of London. Sophie has developed a number of practical projects
through which to research cultural policy, labour conditions and community
art histories in the UK. These include a three-year participant-led
investigation into socially engaged art ('Critical Friends' 2008-2011) and a
large-scale community performance in a Dutch new town ('Het Reservaat'
2007).<span style> </span>Her PhD (completed in
