Sarah Neville is an artist / practitioner whose research is in the area of the transmission and transfer of embodied knowledge in immersive digital simulation environments. Her research is informed by her background in contemporary dance and movement practices and kept up to date through networks in the field of human factors. Sarah has an honours degree from Flinders University in Theatre and Film and a Research Masters in Creative Industries from The Queensland University of Technology. In 2022 Sarah completed a Co-tutelle PhD at both Deakin University and Coventry University in dance digitisation, investigating how people learn through embodied knowledge in immersive simulation environments and what type of processes are involved. Fieldwork was undertaken in Australia and Europe across healthcare, aviation and rail as well as arts-based practices. Current research projects are looking at how embodied knowledge can inform and transform work-based training for immersive simulation industry applications. In 2019 Sarah was an invited artist for a Public Art Commission at the European Centre of Culture’s exhibition at the Venice Biennale. In 2020 Sarah was a recipient of Arts SA fellowship, creating new work for Dance and Virtual Reality.
