Exploring the Space of Creative Practice

How do we engage with the space of creative practice? This project is a topographic exploration of the anfractuous experience of creative practice as conceived through labyrinthine space. Theoretically, and in practice, this is an exploration of the experience of located creative practice, articulated as the studio. As the narrative of this research evolves within this text, I discuss the evolution of my understanding of the 'space of the studio' and the idea of the labyrinth and the labyrinthine as a means for understanding and experiencing this. Building on the discourses of creativity, reflective practice, embodiment, and space and place, I conclude that when attempting to make meaning of located creative practice, it is not labyrinthine space that we seek to understand but rather labyrinthine place.
