dr. Nevena Tatović

Nevena Tatović works as a Marie Skłodowska-Curie fellow at the Department of Ethnology and Cultural Anthropology, where she is developing research on intangible and sensory dimensions of post-disaster landscapes (DeepLandS - 101205129).

Nevena's work lies at the confluence of academic inquiry and the arts. She completed a PhD in art history as a fellow of the Portuguese Foundation for Science and Technology, within the interdisciplinary heritage studies program jointly run by the University of Évora and the Faculty of Fine Arts of Lisbon. She holds a master of research in heritage studies from the University Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne (a joint diploma with the University of Padua and the University of Évora), and her previous background is in landscape architecture (BSc/MSc, University of Belgrade). Nevena's doctoral thesis reimagined landscape and intangibility through the notion of silence, contemplating the flux and connectivity of spiritual traditions, memories, and people–nature entanglements in one sacred natural site. Her research interests encompass phenomenology of landscape and drawing, art-based and sensory methods, environmental humanities and creative geographies, intangible values of nature, and living heritage. At the core of her work is a curiosity to understand the human experience of nature through silence and alternative ways of knowing.
