Speculative Matterings (S-Matterings)
Pedagogic research group
2023 - ongoing.

Speculative matterings is a group of artist teachers who are interested in questioning the role of the studio within Fine Art education today and how we teach, learn and make within these spaces and what they can become. 

Through open calls and discursive workshops, we invite fellow educators into the conversation to share practice, challenges and resources.

Current members: Maggie Ayliffe (Liverpool John Moores),  Andrew Bracey (Lincoln), Joanne Lee (Sheffield Hallam), Danica Maier (Nottingham Trent), Laura Onions (Wolverhampton).
