Sheena Wilson is Assistant Professor at Faculté Saint-Jean, the French campus at the University of Alberta, Canada. She is interested in the relationship between the written word and the image as discursive referents in socio-political contexts. Her research spans the following areas: an interdisciplinary approach to the study of human/civil rights abuses as represented in literature, film, and media; the representation of marginalization and ethnicity by women writers, filmmakers and artists; the de-politicization of film as instrument of social change through specific recent practices in documentary and mainstream film; relationships between the organic world and technologies of the body as represented in media environments. She is a co-founding and co-managing editor of the online open-access journal of Imaginations: Journal of Cross-Cultural Image Studies.
