Practice Sharing is an online presentation of expanded approaches to language-based practice within the field of artistic research, conceived and co-organised by Emma Cocker, Cordula Daus and Lena Séraphin. These peer reviewers represent a Special Interest Group (SIG) in Language-based Artistic Research; part of an initiative of the Society for Artistic Research which provides contexts for coming together via the exchange of language-based research.
Practice Sharing II is an online presentation of expanded approaches to language-based practice within the field of artistic research. Over 60 individuals and collaborations are included in this second 'sharing':
The intent has been to reflect on how language-based artistic research is practised in its diversity rather than to define or determine. As such, the focus on language within artistic research is considered from a broad and transforming perspective to include diverse fields such as visual arts, performance, film, theatre, music, choreography as well as literature; where language-based practices might include (as well as move beyond) different approaches to writing, reading, speaking, listening.
Contributors were invited to respond to an open 'call' outlining their specific approach with one or two examples from their own artistic- or practice-based research — focusing on specific language-based ‘practices’. Brind & Harold contributed two examples of exhibitions of their series of 'Coffee Letters': Bitter Rose (Glasgow International, 2016) and at the Home for Cooperation, Nicosia (2019).
"The chosen submissions have been ordered alphabetically such that the reader may search by name or explore each contribution within the immediate vicinity of other contributions to allow for chance acquaintances, unexpected resonances and aleatory connections.
Rather than a definitive or exhaustive archive or survey of the field, this exposition hopefully provides a starting point from which future conversations and collaborations might emerge." (Practice Sharing)
