Vanessa Chapple is an interdisciplinary artist-researcher, theatre director, filmmaker, children’s play specialist, somatic movement practitioner, musician, educator, and environmental activist. Her present doctoral research in the Creative Agency Lab, School of Education, RMIT, investigates the body as a site of listening. Posthuman, feminist, new materialist thinking and process philosophy infuse her eco-somatic, performance praxis. Her research aims to reveal, through hybrid aesthetic means, the effects and affects of cellular movements and living-system micro-choreographies present within relational exchange in the more-than -human creative ecologies of participatory arts and public pedagogy.
