Materialities and experimental aesthetics
Research in this theme examines formal, material, pedagogical and ethical issues that move within and define different artistic fields and practices.
These explorations include material experimentation and material anthropology, language and translation, extended and site-specific practices, posthumanist ontology and epistemology, different forms of relations and agency, situated and tacit knowledge, perception, aesthetic knowledge and critical pedagogy, and different forms of visualisation. The research transcends and dissolves traditional disciplinary boundaries, exploring how relations between matter and discourse are evoked and challenged within and between different practices.
