"In the higher stages of skill, there is a constant interplay between tacit knowledge
and self-conscious awareness, the tacit knowledge serving as an anchor,
the explicit awareness serving as critique and corrective."
Richard Sennett, The Craftsman, 2009


Research
- inquiry through practice

I am currently working with the master craftsman and CAD/CAM

an exploration of ways of knowing generated through
practice and reflection


This practice-led research poses the question:

'What can be known by making that could not
be known by any other means?
