Dr. Sebastian De Line is an artist, poet, theorist, and Associate Curator, Care & Relations at the Agnes Etherington Art Centre and Lecturer for the Cultural Studies Graduate Program at Queen's University. Their research focuses on a critique of capitalist values and economies that transform agential Indigenous, Black, and Asian ancestors into labouring “objects” of extraction, accumulation and consumption determined by acquisition criteria within museum collections. Publications include the Journal of Visual Culture and Junctures. Sebastian is currently preparing their doctoral dissertation into a book manuscript, entitled, Postmortem Economies in Art: The Carceral Value and Unrested Labor of Ensouled Museum Collections.
