Ayla Lepine’s art and architectural research combines theological perspectives with investigations of modernity. Her work focuses on Victorian visual culture and sacred space, and her Ph.D. thesis concerned G. F. Bodley's Gothic Revival projects at Oxford and Cambridge. She has convened international interdisciplinary conferences includingGothic and Its Legacies­ (2009, with Laura Cleaver) and Intersections: Architecture and Poetry (2011, with Caroline Levitt). As a 2012 Postdoctoral Fellow at the Courtauld, Lepine’s research has concentrated on a project titled Revival: Utopia, Identity, Memory. Outputs include a virtual exhibition, a lecture series, and a major conference.

Ms. Lepine has taught postgraduate and undergraduate audiences at the University of Warwick, the Courtauld Institute of Art, the National Gallery, and King's College London. She has lectured in America, Europe and Australia, on subjects ranging from the Aesthetic Movement and queer perspectives on nineteenth-century imagery to the perception of art as a theological medium. Her work has been published in Music and Modernism (ed. Charlotte de Mille, 2011), Art and Christianity, The Burlington Magazine, and The Architects' Journal. Her current interests include modern monasticism, Anglican art, cityscapes as soundscapes, contemporary artists’ engagement with sacrament and ritual.
