Creative Practice and Embodied Knowledges

This cluster builds support for and values practice-based research and research-creation. We seek to lead innovative thinking and methods in creative making across disciplines and practices, envisioning new ways of knowing and engaging with the world while challenging existing conventions and epistemic models. We position the arts at the centre of research inquiry with a view to acknowledging the creative work critically, across and beyond the academic, industry-led and community sectors. While critically posing questions about gender, race, disability, inclusivity, equity and intersectionality, we hope to develop new sensibilities to address the work of underrepresented groups, such as mother-artists and refugees’ creatives.
