Bio/CV:
Andressa Maia is a PhD candidate in the Department of Portuguese and Brazilian Studies at Brown University. She holds a certificate in Digital Humanities, and for her dissertation, she explores novel methodologies to analyze literary texts, particularly from Brazil and Colombia, through the intersection of literary and cultural studies with digital and environmental humanities to investigate how environmental devastation is portrayed in contemporary cultural production from both countries. Her research interests lie in how artistic productions expand Latin America's environmental imagination by signaling other ways to understand and interact with the natural world.
