For our publishers
Honing perceptual abilities through embodied practices has been an evolving hallmark of 21 st century artistic research. This book explicates how the processes of artistically focused, practice-based research can apply to making - of anything really - whether of human or nonhuman material. The pedagogy is rooted in embodiment – drawing upon human ingenuity as revealed in the patterning and principles of the living body and in the impulse to create. The approach encompasses a range of possibilities for somatic exploration, curation and an-archiving, whether for performance or for other product realization. Conceived as art-made-differently, The F/old seeks to go beyond the creator’s default mode to engage creatively with the unknown. What we aim for is to spin a meshwork of multiplicity and distillation - one that opens to new vantage points for solo- or co-creation. In this sense, the work reaches outside of the constraints of disciplinarity into new worlds. As such, th/fold has appeal to any number of niche areas because its processes adhere to the very nature of embodiment within art making and its underlying tensions and ambiguities.
