BA (Hons) Interactive Arts
Laura Burke
My practice is about having a holistic and creative approach to problem solving.
I draw boundaries. Creating scenarios for things to happen and occur creating conversation. I do this by using workshops, interventions and conversations. I learn from people by engaging with them. My practice is always a two way process where a participant has as much to offer me as I have to offer them. I like it to feel balanced, a kind of exchange.
I create maps and diagrams as tools to try to interrelate the contradictory tendencies found within our society and within our selves. I challenge and attempt to resolve a part of a problem.
It is important to resolve my practice through discussion. Everyone has opinion, each one being of equal validity. My practice embraces the use of workshops to generate conversation and debate to enable individuals to express a creative outlook on ideas.
