Research-Creation Themes

Research-Creation Overview

My artwork and writings emerge from research-creation processes, for I work as an artistic researcher in and outside of the university setting.

This means that my works include explicit experimentation, reflection, and often formal evaluation.

Alongside the art and various theoretical and alternative creative writings: articles, book chapters, etc., outcomes of this work can include new learning experiences and frameworks including for schools, daring curricula, novel audience interactions, workshop series, and new creative methods.

I group my artworks and writings into thematic research strands, where one of them opens doors to generate the next, creating chains of experimental development, realisation, reflection and learning.I am Head of Department, Theatre, University College Cork.
