Author: Gabriela Frost
Gabriela Frost is currently studying towards her MPhil in European, Latin American and Comparative Literatures and Cultures, with a particular interest in Francophone and Italophone culture and arts. She studied her undergraduate BA in French and Italian across several universities (Trinity College Dublin, Università degli Studi di Siena, Université Aix-Marseille, Royal Holloway) before taking a year out of academia to work in a contemporary art gallery and to fulfil a long-term dream of visiting India prior to arriving at Cambridge. Her research interests centre on early twentieth century art, literature, culture and thought in Europe, with an emphasis on the immigrant artists of the École de Paris, and on the involvement of women as cultural producers and patrons. Aside from academic interests, she loves creating and making and enjoys crochet, printmaking, pottery, photography and all things crafty. She is a keen walker and an amateur ornithologist, and also a big foodie who loves cooking (and eating!).
