Her research interests are located at the intersections of spatial and cultural studies, Antarctic humanities, and science. Miranda’s investigations include the human presence and activities in Antarctica in relation to its ice mass; how we humans live, work and thrive on the ice; embodied knowledge into voyaging to and through Antarctica; and spatial representations of Antarctica in visual culture. Miranda’s research involves spatial and visual analysis, critical cultural readings, participant observation, archival research, and creative methods.
