Neil Chapman

Neil Chapman is an artist, writer and researcher. His work explores material textual practices, questions concerning visuality, art-philosophy interdisciplinarity, collaborative method and the histories of these themes. In 2011 he completed a PhD at the University of Reading on the new currency of writing in art practice. His book Diagrams for Seriality(Copy Press, 2014) makes that research available for a wider readership and has been described as a “startling meditation on the relations of seeing to saying” (Simon O’Sullivan). Recently, he has published in E.R.O.S, Performance Research and Haunt Journal. For a number of years Neil Chapman has been working in collaboration with artist and writer David Stent (West Dean College). Their ongoing series of residencies entitled Writing As Occupation explore the effects of place and technology on writing. Neil Chapman is a Senior Lecturer at Falmouth University, where he teaches Art Practice, Critical Studies and Art Research.
