Working thesis title: Body Memory and Prosthetic Apparatuses: Between Meaning and Making

Supervisors: Assoc. Prof. Katrina Sluis, Prof. Mitchell Whitelaw, Dr Baden Pailthorpe

Exegesis Abstract: In this Research-Led Practice, I’m exploring themes of memory, trauma and prosthetic culture. By employing an interdisciplinary approach, I attempt to advance scholarship and learning at the intersection of the psychological, the technological and the philosophical. Remediation as a method and practice will be crucial in bringing new research insights on contemporary lens-based practices. While the non-linear past, present and future will co-exist in the final exhibition, I suggest that the tension between these temporalities is key to our preoccupation with the photograph.
