An investigation into the dispositions of a dyslexic creative practitioner

  • Jennifer Reid

Student thesis: Master's Thesis

Abstract

The purpose of this investigation is to combine academic theory and practise-based research to explore aspects of dyslexia in the context of creative practice. This includes: Social, Medical and Art and Design perspectives on dyslexia, used to understand the correlations between dyslexia and creative outlets such as art and illustration.

This project uses these categories to explore the dispositions of myself as a dyslexic creative practitioner through a research portfolio featuring my own illustrative work and an exhibition under the name Am I Stupid? The narrative that accompanies this practice situates my work within the broader contexts of dyslexia.
