Material Encounters Research Cluster BCU
Description
Material Encounters intends to extend and interrogate the boundaries of materiality within the context of contemporary art and design practices. The cluster provides a critical intellectual space for the exploration of embodiment, subjectivity and aesthetic practices as they are encountered through material and theoretical investigations. Central to the discourse between the researchers is a shared commitment to examine the possibilities and unknowns of matter as a critical meeting point between thought, intention and the expectancy of what might transpire.
As a group of makers ranging from doctoral students, emerging researchers through to more senior researchers we take a collegiate approach to exploring what it means to make through both practice and theory.
