DECRA Fellow for project Art/Play/Risk (http://artplayrisk.com.au)
ART/PLAY/RISK is an interdisciplinary project providing new creative and scholarly research into public art’s role in the design and planning of intergenerational future-cities.
Positioning play as a vital tool for learning, social interaction and public engagement, our research explores the potential of public art to contribute to broadened and diversified opportunities for play in the public sphere. With a specific concentration on questions related to ‘risk’, ART/PLAY/RISK combines scholarly, artistic and interdisciplinary research to develop collaborative approaches to designing child-friendly cities.
