At the Edinburgh College of Art (ECA) School of Art we provide a highly dynamic and supportive research environment for our large and diverse graduate community. Our research students benefit from ECA’s interdisciplinary research environment, which attracts postgraduate students and researchers across the fields of art, design, music, architecture, landscape architecture and history of art. Research in this environment is further informed by collaborative exchanges with other areas in the University’s College of Arts, Humanities & Social Sciences, as well as the wider University (such as the School of Informatics in the College of Science & Engineering). Our current areas of expertise include: Art Art and architecture Art education Artist-run initiatives and DIY culture Art and anthropology Cultural memory, trace and place Curating Expanded painting Feminism and intersectionality Folklore, ritual and superstition Haptic experiments Human, animal and ecological interactions Industrial landscapes Installation art Lens-based (film and photography) Material and cultural (in)stability New media, digital culture & filmic disorientation Nonmodern, paragogy & weird materialisms Printmaking and print media Politics, site and aesthetics Psychophysical sound creation Sculpture & public art Utopian ideologies Visual anthropology & dreams Voice as material Weaving as process 20th century continental philosophy and theory
