The exhibition ‘Malleable Boundaries’ considers the burgeoning field of creative and non-traditional research outputs across our academic disciplines at the University of Waikato. The show highlights work from practicing artists, emerging and established academics, all testing the malleability of the academy's boundaries and challenging our collective understanding of what research can look like in practice.
Creativity and non-traditional research approaches have a strong footing across disciplines, at times transdisciplinary and interdisciplinary, often transcending traditional boundaries. Discover how creative thinking thrives across our faculties and schools, from the School of Arts and Faculty of Māori and Indigenous Studies, through Education and Design, to the unexpected realms of Law and the Sciences.
Across the exhibition are practicing artists working in photography and paint, weaving, audio/visual and performance. Alongside them are qualitative researchers that have ventured into non-traditional outputs including cartography, documentary-based production, game design, comic book creation and posters. Join us in recognizing the innovative spirit that defines our academic community here at the University of Waikato.
