About
I'm currently doing a practice-based PhD, investigating the relationships between cultural democracy and the commissioning of art to effect social change. For more info go to: http://www.welcomebb.org.uk
I have been trying to develop methods of 'collective critical reflection' as a way of re-evaluating claims of criticality and political agency of commissioned (socially engaged) art. These methods include time travel as a facilitation tool, setting up a group of critical friends, making a temporary cultural production line and filming a series of 'performative interviews'.
