Tim Savage is a PhD candidate and Director of Technical Learning at the University for the Creative Arts. His doctoral research utilises phenomenography to explore the qualitatively distinct ways in which creative arts technicians working in higher education conceive of their pedagogies. One significant early finding of the study is the lack of visibility regarding the critical role that technicians play in educating learners. Keeping this notion of invisibility in mind, consenting participants were photographed in their teaching spaces as part of the fieldwork at eight UK Higher Education Institutions.

The event is part of Tech: X: Technique exhibition and Farnham October Craft Month celebrations. 

The event is FREE but booking is essential as space is limited. Book HERE
