Isabella Greenwood is a London based writer, critic and curator.

 

Greenwood's work blends critical theory with reflections on digital culture, examining the intersections of technology, spirituality, cultural phenomena and memory. Her work often engages with hauntology, media archaeology, and posthumanist thought. She has contributed written works and criticism for Plaster, Polyester Zine, PM/AM, Vogue, Dazed, Cosmopolitan, Elephant Magazine, The Toe Rag, Uncontaminated and Metal Magazine.​

 

Her research on the phenomenological exclusion of migrants was published in The Journal of Genocide and Political Violence (Vol. 22, 2020).  Her criticism spans from Samuel Beckett’s Waiting for Godot to Hongxi Li’s critique of mass industrialisation in China for Metal Magazine, as well as explorations of sex, surrealism, and absurdity in the films of Yorgos Lanthimos for both Dazed and Wonderland.​​ Greenwood has held editorial roles with 9vt\5 Publishing House and served as Editor-in-Chief for the political video and photography art marketplace, Uncontaminated. Beyond freelance writing and research, she currently serves as Editor-in-Chief and Curator for Shipton Gallery.

 

Recent curatorial projects include Vigil (November 22nd 2024, Loods 6, Amsterdam), a group exhibition featuring over twenty-five artists that examined themes of mortality, decay, speculative afterlives, and the repetitive act of vigilance, as well as God Willing (December 6th 2024, Shipton Gallery, London), a forthcoming exploration of theology and spirituality within the context of the digital age.
