Towards collaborative and explorative processes in opera
PhD project by Maria Lindeman exploring how interdisciplinary collaboration and co-creative methodologies can inform and transform working processes within contemporary opera
The project looks at how interdisciplinary and co-creative processes can influence artistic work in opera today. Through productions like Currents and Aqua, Lindeman reflects on her own role in collaborative creation and how shared authorship and ensemble work can bring depth and relevance to the art form.
Aim and research questions
To explore how co-creation across disciplines can transform artistic processes in opera and how this affects artistic expression and outcomes. The project also considers how responsive forms of direction and leadership can help collective processes stay coherent and creative.
Research implementation and anticipated impact
The project develops through practical artistic work and reflection, using opera productions as living labs. It aims to show how opera can evolve into a more collaborative and participatory art form, able to engage with today’s complex world.
