Looking for Trouble: Archaeology, Art and Interdisciplinary Encounter

Department of Cross-Cultural and Regional Studies

Abstract

This paper considers the difficulties and creativity involved in interdisciplinary collaboration. Based on some of the outputs generated from shared time spent at the UNESCO World Heritage site of El Kurru in Sudan, the common elements of both artistic and archaeological work are explored. By reflecting on certain methods and materials a version of our practices emerges from the assemblage of the archaeological site, one which is deeply engaged with sensorially based responses to it.
