Tim Long: Material thinking in Art: subject, object and the subjectile

My thesis examines work by Antonin Artaud, Henry Darger, Marcel Duchamp, and Pablo Picasso, with the intention of subjecting specific works by these artists to critical tests employing the idea proposed by Antonin Artaud's subjectile, that is a paradoxical fusion of both subject and object.

Patricia Townsend

I work with video, photography and installation and am interested in the interface between the external world and the internal world of the imagination.

Henrietta Simson

As a dominant Western visuality develops away from the system of linear perspective on which it was founded, and towards the digital and virtual technologies of cyberspace, the idea of somehow replicating 'natural vision', so long the basis of this visuality's authority, is forced into new territories.

Deborah Padfield

Can photographs of pain mediate the space between patient and clinician to facilitate improved communication and rapport in facial pain consultations? Can an exploration of facial pain inform our understanding of portraiture and vice versa?

Kay Tabernacle

My research investigates concepts of imagination in Hannah Höch's independent and collaborative work.  I ask where Höch locates her understanding of imagination within different conceptual frameworks, drawing on concepts of imagination from Bergson, Freud, Breton, Benjamin and Bachelard.
