ECU's Visual Arts research focuses on practice-led inquiry as an approach to acquiring knowledge through artistic creation.
We promote cross-disciplinary initiatives. While individual postgraduate research themes are crafted in collaboration with advisors, we particularly welcome proposals exploring: Location; Bodily Experience; Material Properties; Transience; Selfhood; Hybrid Spaces; Digital Society; Movement; Indigenous Perspectives; Hyperreality; Immersive Technologies; Challenging Visual Norms; Emerging Imagery; Sustainable Innovation; Methodology; Social Constructs; Transformative Moments; Sensory Perception; Art-History Connections. Current faculty projects examine: Terrain and Ecology; Space and Belonging; Art-Science Intersections; Ephemeral Painting; Cultural Hybridity; Physicality and Presence; Artistic Epistemology; Peripatetic Art Practices; Digital Realms; Contemporary Feminist Theories. The School provides modern studio facilities for students incorporating practical work into their research.
