Centre for Creative Arts, Cultures and Engagement
Description
The Centre for Creative Arts, Cultures and Engagement brings together interdisciplinary research in the creative arts, its practice, cultural impact and societal engagement.
CREATURE hosts a range of disciplines, including:
- Cultural and creative industries
- Material and visual culture
- Practice-based/led research (creative writing, digital arts, fashion and textile, interior design, music, performance arts, photography, visual arts)
Drawing on our School of Art, Architecture and Design’s tradition of cross-disciplinary studio practice and collaboration, CREATURE members are uniquely placed to study the changing nature of the creative arts with cultures of materials, new aesthetics, creative processes of making and theorising, and understanding of cultural and creative production in an evolving society.
Through writing, practice, commission and consultancy, CREATURE members have taken the dual role as academic researchers and art/cultural practitioners with many involved in activism, curation, journalism and the cultural and creative industries on a national and international level.
