The writing that I’ve had published tracks my research interests over the early part of my career; from creative teaching and learning to challenging the traditional model of participation in the Arts. It also reflects my interest in creative research methods which remains a constant in my practice.
I have also included information about publications that share the creative outputs of my practice below. In recent years I have come to recognise that these outputs often disseminate the insights from my research more powerfully than words ever could alone. By acknowledging that made items hold learning to be shared, I have been able to both maximise the impact of my research and open my work up to audiences that extend beyond academia and specialist interest groups.
