this space is for

the curious who wants to bridge the gap between their values and embodying them

the researcher interested in land, nature, indigenous, memory, craft, patterns, images, time, the internet, music poetry and liberation

the empathetic critic who wants to dismantle, re-envision, and put back together

the compassionate collaborator who respects, adds to, and co-imagines solutions & visions

the visionary worldbuilder who wants to dream, organize, and strategize

the creative who wants to make, draw, weave, tell, dance, move, connect

NSISIM Studio wants to personally thank the planet for all that it is, Sasha Kelley for outlining the marketing and distribution strategy of these courses – endlessly grateful for your piscean dreamer and capricorn rootedness and Iris E. Fernández Valdés who is our creative practice and emotional excavation life coach who has been accompanying us through parks, emotional underworld, creative laboratory, and inner child to unearth language and corporal and poetic connections presented as NSISIM.

Research Methods for Artists



Have a project, offering, artwork in mind but don’t know where to get started?

Do you need a way to organize your thoughts, research and documentation?

Are you desiring a way to alchemize research into an offering, artwork, organizing effort?

Are you looking for online and in-person resources support in the planning stages of your ideas?


In this course, we’ll:


  1. pool from an extensive list of research tools & weave them into our artistic practice (or idea of choice)
  2.  learn from artist collectives’ research methods & ways of organizing information, dreams, & visions 
  3. develop our own methodologies suited to our practice, ways of being, thinking, seeing, and relating  
  4. dive into best practices for research, archiving, cataloguing, sources for digital and in-person research
