TEACHING & SUPERVISION SUMMARy

Steve Carr is a Senior Lecturer in Moving Image at Ilam School of Art. His teaching centres on experimentation, material enquiry, and critical reflection within lens-based and time-based practices. He encourages students to treat moving image not simply as narrative form, but as a field for testing duration, transformation, scale, and attention.

 

Carr supports students to develop rigorous conceptual frameworks alongside technical fluency, fostering studio environments where risk, precision, and sustained enquiry are valued. His pedagogy emphasises process, iterative development, and the productive potential of failure, guiding students to situate their work critically within contemporary art discourse while maintaining a strong, individual voice.
