Claudia's research lies at the intersection of performance, technology, and gender. Her PhD dissertation examines what she terms 'virtual women': female-gendered technologies and objects. She is interested in how such 'virtual women' perform logics of gender and racialized embodiment and re-materialize new ones.

​

Claudia is also passionate about the role of the artist-scholar, emphasising the relationship between practice and research in her work and teaching and the ways in which these disciplines inform and complement one another.
