Course Summary
Research in Creative Practice is a critical introduction to creative practice research. In this course you will be introduced to a range of research methods and frameworks to support your Honours project. The course will help you contextualise the studio component of your Honours project and support the writing of an exegesis.
Through the exploration of critical debates and multiple perspectives, you will identify key discourses and practices relevant to your project. You will be exposed to issues and themes in contemporary practice and learn how other artists and practitioners have approached their practice as research. Through workshops and assessments, we will develop the first part of your exegesis. Classes are designed to support your Honours project and will take the form of lectures, workshops, reading discussions, and student presentations. Research in Creative Practice will also prepare you for higher levels of study and research degrees.
