Biography

Nina Williams is a Senior Lecturer at UNSW Canberra with expertise in cultural geography. Her research is concept-led, focusing on theorizing creativity within the contexts of art and design, as well as the philosophical underpinnings surrounding these areas. Williams emphasizes the importance of speculative thinking in geophilosophy and has a keen interest in the interplay between design studies and biomaterial regenerative practices, working closely with design institutions and practitioners to challenge the notion that design is solely a human endeavor. She co-edited the book 'Speculative Geographies: Ethics, Technologies, Aesthetics' published by Palgrave MacMillan in 2022. Williams holds a BA (Hons) in Geography from the University of Manchester, an MSc in Human Geography from the University of Bristol, and a PhD in Human Geography from the same institution. She began her role at UNSW Canberra in 2019 after serving as a Research Associate in the Urban Living department of Civil Engineering at the University of Bristol and as a Lecturer in Human Geography in the School of Geographical Sciences at the University of Bristol.
