Dr Katica Pedisic

Katica Pedisic is a Lecturer in the Architecture program in the School of Art, Architecture and Design. She teaches across Architectural Design, Construction, Communication and Professional Practice in the undergraduate and Masters programs. She is a registered architect with a strong record of design excellence and allied research portfolio of practice based research. Her research explores architectural and urban sites through making drawing and digital film works with an emphasis on their narrative storytelling potentials and her work has been exhibited internationally and nationally, most notably at the Bartlett, UC, London and The Royal Danish School of Arts; published and spoken at conferences (Drawing Millions of Plans, KADK; Sexuate Subjects, Bartlett) and invited public panels (MPavilion’s MTalks and Parlour salons). She completed her PhD by practice at RMIT in December 2016 under the supervision of Profs Richard Blythe, Hélène Frichot and Dr Michael Spooner, examining the act of drawing (digital & analogue) in mediating the registration and emergence of space and how drawings might articulate our engagement with architecture over time. She has over 13 years in practice as associate at a design studio working on residential and small-scale cultural projects, with work published internationally and receiving numerous Australian Institute of Architects awards for design excellence. As an academic, she has taught at the University of Melbourne, Swinburne Institute of Technology and the University of Adelaide.
