Prof Jayne Wallace

Professor

Department: Northumbria School of Design

As Professor of Craft, Digital Creativity and Wellbeing in the School of Design my work explores the potential of design and digital technologies, jewellery and the act of making to support sense of self across a range of human contexts.

I’m co-founder and co-editor of the Journal of Jewellery Research with Dr Roberta Bernabei and co-founder of the Research Through Design conference series with Prof Joyce Yee.

I lead Northumbria University's School of Design CoCreate research community - a brilliant group of over 50 academics, post-doctoral and doctoral researchers all exploring the intersection of design, technology and participation in a range of human contexts. I’m currently principal investigator on the Enabling Ongoingness research project funded by the EPSRC, Co-Investigator on the AHRC funded hiCraft project, Co-Investigator on the EPSRC Centre for Digital Citizens, Co-Investigator on the REAPPEAR project funded by PETRAS via the EPSRC and Co-Investigator on the EU Marie Curie funded OpenDoTT project. You can find out more about my work from my personal website.
