Doman, Jakob A. | Vaal University of Technology |
My background as Practitioner is grounded in a combination of experience in the Commercial Advertising, Editorial and Fine Art arenas for which I have been honoured with both local (Loeries) and international (D & AD - London) and (Clio - New York) Awards as well as being shortlisted for the Daimler-Chrysler Award in 2004.
As an educator, I focus my interests on the diverse fields of moral theology, applied aesthetics, digital image sensitometry, digital convergence and practise-based arts research methodologies. By creating a synergy from these seemingly disparate fields, I employ a multi-faceted and holistic educational approach that, hopefully, offers intellectual stimulation and creative awareness to students and colleagues alike.
