Highlighting the topicality of the debate on the relationship of artistic practice and writing, the Society for Artistic Research organized an entire conference on the topic in 2016. Entitled “Writing as Practice, Practice as Writing,” the conference set out to explore “how both writing and practice operate as ways to convey new knowledge, understanding and experiences by which we (re)organize our lives.” On the conference website, the organizers describe the relationship of writing and practice within artistic research as follows: “Often the relationship is felt to be one of friction, opposition or paradox. Writing gives an explicit verbal account of the implicit knowledge and understanding embodied in artistic practices and products while at the same time art may escape or go beyond what can be expressed by words and resist (academic) conventions of accountability.” (Sarconference2016.net 3 February 2017)
