Sophia Maxine Farmer's research focuses on the intersection of art history, visual culture, and historical narratives. Her work investigates how monuments, photography, and art objects are conceived, constructed, and interpreted within specific cultural and political contexts.
Her recent publications explore the colonial conception and Italian construction of the "Monumento ai caduti d’Africa" in Siracusa, the themes of emptiness and landscape in Michael Light's aerial photographs of the American West, and the complexities surrounding Giorgio de Chirico's artwork and a notable 'true-fakes' scandal. Farmer's scholarship contributes to understanding the material and symbolic dimensions of cultural production and reception.
