Marleen Boschen is a curator, lecturer and artist working at the intersections of art and ecology. In 2019 she co-curated the research, performance and exhibition project Soil is an Inscribed Body: On Sovereignty and Agropoetics at SAVVY Contemporary, Berlin with Elena Agudio. The exhibition considered land relations, anti-colonial struggles and multispecies collaborations through artistic practice. Since January 2023 she has continued the collaboration with Agudio to develop Testing Grounds, an artistic programme on cultivation, migration and agroecological learning for the garden of Villa Romana in Florence. Since September 2023 she has been the adjunct curator for art and ecology at Tate in the HTRC:T research centre. Marleen regularly teaches at art schools and was a senior lecturer on the BA Fine Art at Chelsea College of Art in 2023/24. She recently started a postdoctoral fellowship at Kew Gardens, London researching how artists can work within botanic gardens with a particular focus on social and climate justice.
