Module description

This module provides students with the opportunity to create solo or pair performance projects as practical investigations of critical ideas in performance studies. Students develop modes of 'practice-research,' in which research questions are explored through practical methods, leading to a public showing of short creative works, and a written critical reflection. This will take place through weekly workshops facilitated by the module convenor and guest artists, and independent project time, taking advantage of the Anatomy Museum studio space.
