Currently in the final year of postgraduate studies in Creative Arts Therapy with a specialisation in arts-based research, RTM is a multi-modal visual and performance artist, photographer, poet, writer, and creative arts therapist. They are passionate about cultivating awareness around ‘studio arts inquiry practice’ as a therapeutic modality. As an arts-based researcher, RTM delves into the ontology of neurodivergent lived experience and how this impacts/is impacted by trauma, relationality, and epistemological considerations. RTM aspires to see neurodivergent modes of expression and understanding more widely integrated and represented within research literature and academia. They are curious to see what emerges from and beyond the post-qualitative and the depth and inclusivity this could bring to academic and therapeutic landscapes.
