According to Dr. Risa Horowitz, a cohort of Canadian university-based artist-researchers, such as Barbara Meneley, employ practice-based research methodologies in which the "functions of research, creation and dissemination are complexly iterative, intertwined and reflexive", more prominently than in traditional art practice [REF].
Meneley has stated that because her process is often determined through experimental responses to a particular discourse[REF] "[she has] to be clear on what [she says] textually, and doing that contributes to clarity in [her] material work.
