Katherine J McCallum

I completed my practice-based PhD in fine art and linguistics, a communicate ethnography of research mathematics with artistic research methods, at the University of Brighton in the UK in 2020. My research focus is the capacity of art and other methods of enquiry to propose consistent yet unfamiliar systems of reasoning, with an emphasis on interdisciplinary enquiry and the theoretical warrant for artistic research. My art-theoretical and interdisciplinary research has been published in Leonardo, Philosophy of Science, Review of Philosophy and Psychology and the Journal of Artistic Research, and my work on mathematical communication included in the Diversity Project Reading List for People and Proofs. In my teaching I love to encourage an experimental, interdisciplinary outlook in students, with a focus on practice as a form of enquiry, community and environmental engagement, and bringing scientific and mathematical concepts to an artistic audience.
