Creating [in]sincerity: A study of sincerity in contemporary visual art practice

Daynes, Rebecca (2019) Creating [in]sincerity: A study of sincerity in contemporary visual art practice. PhD by Creative Works, Queensland University of Technology.

Description

Undertaken during the turn towards a 'post-truth' culture and the rise of the #MeToo movement, this practice-led project has investigated sincerity's contradictions and difficulties and devises conceptual and mediated strategies for 'sincere' creative engagement in arts practice, specifically in relation to expressions of trauma. This thesis considers the role of sincerity in ethical, communicative, phenomenological, and affective modes, examining the nature of sincerity across visual platforms.
