Dr William Titley is the Senior Lecturer for MA Fine Art, and a Co-founder and Director of 'In-Situ', an artist led organisation (Arts Council National Portfolio Organisation), based in Pendle, East Lancashire, UK. His transdisciplinary research practice crosses a variety of fields including Art, Anthropology, Architecture, Sociology, Psychoanalysis, Health & Wellbeing, and Geography. His projects and artworks interrogate and reveal aspects of community, and the collective interpretation of landscape through a creative process of engagement with People, Place and Environment. With a wide range of Awards, William’s creative research practice aims to make art a part of everyday life through the embedding of exhibitions, performances, installations, conferences and public interventions into everyday situations with local and international communities. Working with and supporting international artists and communities from the UK, Europe, Pakistan, Mexico, USA, and India, and disseminating his outputs internationally his work continues to reach world-wide audiences (BBC Radio 6Music has over 2.5milliion listeners, and The Muslim TV channel is transmitted to over 136 countries). He writes as a participant, as an artist and as a member of the local community. By adopting artistic research methods, and specifically, by making work in the place where he lives, which could be considered a form of auto-ethnographic artistic research, his research analyses social artistic processes from the perspective of the artist, adding to debates around what social arts practice is, and what its limits are in its original social context and within the gallery and documentary systems of dissemination.
