Dr Dani Admiss is an interdisciplinary researcher, writer, curator and artist whose work investigates climate transition, carbon governance and infrastructural systems. Combining critical research with participatory and collaborative methodologies, she explores the socio-material politics of decarbonisation, climate justice, science and technology, and the forms of stewardship and collective world-making emerging through environmental transition.
I research how climate transitions are shaped through existing systems of governance, infrastructure and political economy, and why many proposed climate solutions reproduce the conditions they seek to transform. My work examines the tensions that emerge across climate policy, carbon governance and decarbonisation, developing new conceptual frameworks for understanding the material, social and political afterlives of climate action.
Alongside this research, I bring over twenty years of experience as an artist, curator and programme lead, designing collaborative processes that bring together diverse forms of knowledge under conditions of uncertainty, conflict and unequal power.
Working across research, writing and interdisciplinary practice, I investigate how climate transitions reorganise infrastructures, responsibilities and relations, while exploring alternative approaches to governance, stewardship and collective world-making.
