ABOUT

Luca Soudant (b. Maastricht, 1993) is a PhD researcher funded by the Dutch Research Council (NWO). They are a cultural studies scholar, artist, DJ (ADIË) and critical practice educator at Maastricht Institute of Arts. Luca holds a research master's degree in Cultural Analysis from the University of Amsterdam and a master's degree in Critical Studies from the Sandberg Institute. From 2023 to 2024, they were a participant at the post-academic Jan van Eyck Academy in Maastricht. 


Luca's research combines academic scholarship with artistic practice and is situated at the intersection of gender studies, posthumanist feminism and sound studies. In their practice, Luca studies how gender is culturally (per)formed through sound in-between humans and objects. Beyond researching binary gender dynamics, they inquire the possibilities of non-musical sound to set matter in motion as a way to queer (i.e. bend) our perspectives on matter, meaning and, most importantly, their entanglements. They work with the tangibility of sound and propose sonic thinking (i.e. making and thinking with/through sound) as a trans*formative politics toward non-binary and anti-essentialist conceptions of the worlds we inhabit.
