In pursuing her research on the intellectual and artistic history of South India she adopts a holistic approach that integrates visual, written and oral sources. This approach is reflected in a multidisciplinary methodology combining philology, anthropology, textual analysis and media studies, which has led her to investigate types of ‘trans-medial’ forms of textuality hitherto left on the margins of academia. She is a collaborator in the VOICES project focusing on the relationship between literary and oral song cultures.
