Catherine Bagnall MFA

Senior Lecturer

School of Design

 

Catherine's work focuses on performance practices and its intersection with dress. Using the distinctively cultural form of clothing to explore the human /non-human divide Catherine’s work puts into practice ‘becoming other” as a transformational strategy to shift our relationship to our environment and our fellow non- human creatures.

Her work explores the role of the imagination in inventing new possible worlds in this period of complexity and uncertainty  the world is currently in. Testing the bounds of self through performative acts of "dressing up", the work offers new modes of experience more sensory and baroque than we usually give value to.

Research Expertise

Research Interests

 

Catherine Bagnall is an artist whose work focuses on performance practices and its intersection with dress. Using the distinctively cultural form of clothing to explore the human non-human animal divide Catherine’s work puts into practice ‘becoming other” as a transformational strategy to shift our relationship to our environment and our fellow non- human creatures.

Her work questions the role of the imagination in inventing new possible worlds in this moment of complexity and uncertainty that the world is currently in. Testing the bounds of self through performative acts of "dressing up", the work offers new modes of experience more sensory and baroque than we usually give value to.

Catherine is also a sometimes writer and she explores writing as a mode of 'becoming'.
