Shape:
In general I think the best option for me to shape my thesis would be through one of the example formats given: a narrative that traces a web of relationships – contextualizing your work in relation to other practitioners, practices and artworks, situating your work within relevant theoretical, philosophical, aesthetic and other fields of knowledge. Because I think it could be interesting to keep on researching the three strands of research I've been conducting so far(queer cinema, lgbt identity/issues, and the photographic medium as such). A possiblity could be to divide the thesis in two or three parts.

What you want the thesis to be about?

How it relates to your research at the Piet Zwart so far

Bibliography (not complete)
Arnheim, R (2004), Visual Thinking, University of California
Daston, L. and Galison, P. (2007), Objectivity, The MIT Press
