As part of the Creatives, Communities and Economies research project, we’re hosting three artist-researchers at RMIT PlaceLab Brunswick for residencies between September and November 2023. We’re excited to see how Varuni Kanagasundaram (clay, textiles), Jody Haines (photo, public art), and Channon Goodwin (mapping commons) bring their practices into our research studio. We’ll post updates for each artist-researcher during their residency, but in this post we chat to Dr Marnie Badham about art and artist residencies as research practices. Marnie has extensive experience as an artist-researcher and is one of the academic leads on the Creatives, Communities and Economies project.
