Are you an art student tasked with writing a research-creation thesis and unsure where to begin? Are you struggling to develop your plan? Are you encountering obstacles in structuring and developing your ideas? Are you finding it difficult to connect your practical issues (artistic approach) with theoretical concepts? Finally, are you facing methodological challenges?

By using the Constellation Model that I had designed for research-creation, I bring you to explain your intentions and your motivations to the point of exceeding them. By becoming aware of your spontaneous mental and semantic associations, you will gradually be able to build a personal methodology which starts from your artistic practice and which corresponds to both your sensitivity and your cognitive imprint.

I also support you in nurturing a sensitive relationship to your own work, but all the same methodical and critical

The support includes:
- Exercises in mental/semantic associations (how to produce creative and meaningful syntheses?).
- Explanation exercises of your identified conscious intentions and motivations. (mindfulness and theoretical contributions)
- Help in articulating concepts while starting from your artistic approach.
- An introduction to aesthetic and technical retrospective analysis techniques.
- Writing assistance
- and on request, an introduction to textual analysis techniques.

This course is aimed at any artist or student engaged in research-creation and in the preparation of a Master's thesis, in pre-doctoral preparation or in doctoral studies.

Being trilingual Arabic / French / English, the language spoken during the accompaniment will be the one you choose.

Areas of expertise:

|visual arts
| arts and new media, digital arts
| practice & theory of contemporary art
| aesthetics & art history
|research-creation methodology

Teaching young children from the age of 6 to 13 years how to draw, express their talents, and release their energy in something useful, and make them able to express their feelings in a better and safer way. This also makes us know what the child’s personality is and what his nature is, and makes him adapt to express expressions in a proper way.

I have three years of experience in teaching at the university level, and I am always keen to work with you on the conceptual, artistic, and technical dimensions of your design projects no matter the scale.
