These are artists who have been associated with art colleges in Brno, specifically with the Faculty of Fine Arts of the BUT and the Theatre Faculty of the JAMU. Through interviews with the artists, the reader will learn under what circumstances they began to engage in artistic research, how they perceive it, what meanings they attribute to it and the purpose it serves for them. The selected group of artists is very diverse and their creative and research strategies are different, as are the purposes for which they use artistic research. The publication does not aim to provide an exhaustive overview of the methods used in artistic research, but it does aim to show that there are many approaches to artistic research and to present the paths that have brought particular artists to artistic research.

Halo of Shame (2025) Dler Mariam Dalo
Språktap er en vanlig konsekvens av okkupasjon, fordriving og flukt. I Halo of Shame utforsker Shwan Dler Qaradaki hvordan den politiske undertrykkelsen av kurdisk – hans morsmål - har formet hans kunstneriske praksis. Med inspirasjon fra både vestlig klassisk kunst og islamsk miniatyrkunst skaper han et visuelt uttrykk som balanserer mellom øst og vest, fortid og nåtid, objekt og subjekt. Gjennom dette arbeidet utvikler han et dekolonialt bildespråk som kan romme de komplekse lagene av identitet, erfaring og motstand. Veiledere: Tiril Schrøder: 2021-2025 Merete Røstad: 2021-2023 Ane Hjort Guttu: 2023-2025 Web disegner: Ellen Palmeira Bilder, video, tekst og tegninger: Shwan Dler Qaradaki

reconstruction i-v (2015-2023) - a series of works on industry and music (2025) Lene Grenager
reconstruction i-v is a series of works I have been working on for almost a decade. The works take about 2 hours and 40 minutes to perform and explore the dismantling of industry, machines as part of people's intimate lives, and the musical potential of industrial machines and industrial sounds. I use embroidered scores, video and audio files as well as sewing machines and conventional acoustic instruments. In this exposition I present the works and the process of making them. reconstruction i-v was performed in full by Alpaca Ensemble during ARW in Trondheim 2024.
