In the nascent field of posthuman museum studies, Fiona R. Cameron cuts a singular figure. Since
their conceptualisation of the ‘liquid museum’ in Andrea Witcomb and Kylie Message’s 2015
collection Museum Theory (Cameron, 2015), Cameron has been a crucial driver in theorising and
applying posthumanism to the multifarious field of museum governance and practice. Their work
navigates and encompasses curatorial documentation practices (Cameron, 2018), digital data and
heritage (Cameron, 2021), as well as the museum’s complicity in the conditions of the global Covid19 pandemic (Cameron, 2022). Museum Practices and the Posthumanities: Curating for Planetary Habitability
(2024) presents Cameron’s– and indeed, anyone’s– most comprehensive thinking, writing, and
action around posthuman museum practices yet.
