One of my main research interests is street art as an artistic and social phenomenon. I have been writing about this academically since 2006.

In 2014, my first book, The Street Art World, was independently published by Almendros de Granada Press. They also published my second book,
Street Art and the Environment, in 2018.

I am currently working on a monograph that focuses on experimentation with visual methods to explore the world of graffiti writing.

Together with professor Max Liljefors, I am also conducting the research project Art Worlds Apart, funded by the Swedish Research Council (2022-2024).

From October 2018 to May 2019 I coordinated the Urban Creativity research theme at the Pufendorf Institute for Advanced Studies at Lund University.

In May 2019 I co-founded the interdisciplinary research network
Urban Creativity Lund.
