"This book explores the contexts, questions, challenges and opportunities for creative exploration of form, materials, and the body, in space. Presenting 9 original case studies from artwork shaped by the unique physical and psychological conditions of space, and informed by exclusive interviews with artists working in the field, it highlights collaborations between artists, engineers, and theorists that have recontextualized the perception and use of weighted materials and subject positions in art practice"--

Barbara Brownie is Assistant Dean at the Royal College of Art, UK. She investigates the potential for space as a site for creative practice through research and collaborations within the arts and spaceflight industries. Her last book, Spacewear (Bloomsbury, 2019) explored the effects of microgravity on the dressed body.
