About research

Research project search

The subject Performative and media-based practices accommodates research in artistic practice. It offers possibilities for artists with higher education or equivalent qualifications to reflect in, on and through artistic practice. This is done by situating a specific enquiry to relevant knowledge and methods within artistic practice, resulting in a documented artistic research project (doctoral thesis).

The aim of the doctoral programme Performative and media-based practices is to educate the artists and artistic researchers of the present, in both practice and theory, as they endeavor to make meaningful contributions to the art, culture, and society of the future. Programme aims include promoting dialogue about art in and with society, as well as developing collaborations and exchanges between artistic research and other fields of research.

Submit your application no later than 14 February 2024 at 23:59, Swedish time.
