Ece Canlı is a researcher and artist whose work intersects body politics, material regimes and, more specifically, socio-spatio-material constitutions of gender, sexuality, race, and other identity categories. Holding a PhD in Design from the University of Porto (PT), she is currently a junior researcher at CECS (The Communication and Society Research Centre) at the University of Minho (PT) where she investigates spatial, material and technological conditions of the criminal justice system, penal design, and abolition feminism in her project Prison Heterocisnormative Complex: Spatio-material Politics of Queer Incarceration. She is a board member of ATGENDER (NL) and a member of Carceral Geophraphy Working Group (CGWG) (UK), SOPCOM (PT) (in Gender and Sexualities and Cultural Studies WGs), and A Passeio (Platform for the study of art and urban culture) (PT). As a musician and performance artist, she explores counterfactual narratives of marginalised bodies through extralinguistic expressions, extended vocal techniques, live-processed acoustics and electronics, as well as performing body while creating sound and image for stage, exhibitions, and films.
