Thinking through making
I'm interested in what happens when we use our hands to think, drawing, writing, sketching, arranging, making and experimenting with ideas.
My research explores visual sense-making and the ways creative practice can help us understand ideas, communicate, learn and build creative confidence.
In progress
What I'm exploring

What happens when analogue making meets AI
Current thinking
The space between the hand and the prompt
I'm particularly interested in the space between the hand and the prompt, what we gain, what changes, and what remains distinctly human when creative practice moves between drawing, making and generative AI.
The current research projects are still in development, more information coming soon.
