Based on the artists' sensitive experience, the research work enables each student to analyse his or her own practice and to develop a unique voice. In the first year, methodological tools and reading and writing workshops enable students to give form to their critical questioning by keeping a research notebook, nourished as much by observation as by practice. In the second year, the emphasis is on the dramaturgy of the dissertation, inviting students to explore different writing formats that resonate with their creative process, accompanied by artist-researchers. This work culminates in a defence, a high point for collective reflection and sharing of experience.
