Fiona Woods

Dr Fiona Woods is an artist, researcher and lecturer at Limerick School of Art & Design. Her PhD from TU Dublin (2021) examined art and the commons through a socially engaged practice. Woods' research explores the epistemology of creative artefacts, materiality and publicness; her work has been published in various outlets, and has been presented at many international conferences. Woods was a core researcher on the EU-funded projects ‘City (Re)Searches’ (2012-14) and ‘Rurban’ (2009 – 11). Her practice-based research bridges art, critical theory and pedagogy, investigating how creative work functions as knowledge production and epistemological intervention. She lectures in several institutions, and is a postgraduate research supervisor.
