Renée Roll is an Associate Professor in the School of Art, Art History program. As an interdisciplinary scholar, she works at the intersection of design, craft, material studies, and its convergence with art history and critical theory in the field of visual culture. Her current research investigates the relationship between critical making, hierarchical relationships in contemporary art, craft and design, and production of meaning through media affiliated with all genres of visual production—both academic and vernacular. An additional trajectory of this research includes investigation of the role or identity of artist, designer, or maker within global society, and how creative practice is valued or understood within diverse cultures.
