Abstract | Mooney was one of seven contributors to the volume Thinking Through Art, which took an innovative look at artist's experiences of undertaking doctorates, proposing that the making of art is not only the production of an object but also the formulation of complex ideas. Asking what effect academic enquiry had on art practice, the book focused on art produced in higher educational environments and considered how the material product comes about through a process of conceiving and giving form to abstract thought. Importantly, the book argues that art itself, in the context of research degrees, is the research thesis and demonstrates the artist's active engagement and critical relation with and to the world. |
