Our projects

The aim of Pilvi Porkola's research is to consider how performance art is taught and what social dimensions performance art teachers see in their work.

Chris Evans' and Magnus Quaife's project seeks to discover trans-geographical entanglements between education, geo-economic circumstances, cultural conditions, and communities through which alterity has been articulated and dissent enacted.

Timothy Smith's study seeks to learn about the neurodiversity experience of students’ engagement with artistic thinking within their artistic processes.

Magnus Quaife's project sets out to develop a deeper understanding of how and why artists teach in the ways they do, to share these approaches through various means, and to foster communities of practice.

Luis Guerra's project explores collective artistic practices as informal devices of intentionless learning, radical democracy, and institutional activism.

The aim of the research project is to develop artist pedagogy and to subversively and horizontally alter the silo structures of the art university curricula.

The research project aims to understand how artistic professionalism is understood and embodied by staff and students on the MFA and the factors that shape whether students feel confident that they can pursue careers as professional artists.

Aino-Kaisa Koistinen's project examines feminist practices of collective writing in the context of artistic thinking and artist pedagogy.
