This research examines how contemporary artists in Australia have engaged with the material of lived-in places in their artworks. It focuses on artists who have exhibited work in and in response to actual houses, or played with the materiality of the house itself in their work, using houses soon to be demolished, or bits of them, or stuff that has come out of houses. Through an interrogation of my own practice and the practice of others, the research examines the relationships among site, material and artist practice in the making of these works, and how the power of the site and what artists bring to the work - a 'toolbox' of familiar materials and practices, including their processes of discovery - combine in this kind of emergent practice to influence what is created. It examines these relationships through three modes of making with the material of livedin places: making through dwelling - when an artist spends time dwelling in a place through an artist residency or shorter site visits; making with an artist's belongings brought from home; and making with unoccupied houses often slated for demolition.The research argues that the differing influences of site, material and artist practice shift from work to work and artist to artist, as might be expected, although there are commonalities within different modes of working. The amount of time spent dwelling in a site can influence the work produced there - an artist residency can result in work greatly influenced by the site, while a short site visit can result in more reliance on an artist's toolbox. The work also depends upon a combination of the artist's attention and the power of the peripheral.This new knowledge will help art historians and artists themselves better understand this type of responsive art practice. Curators and those who commission artists will better understand how artists engage with site and material, especially in relation to lived-in places, and this can guide how they curate and commission work. Organisations running residencies often require detailed proposals, which take time to write and to consider; however, this research argues that the influence of the site on the work through the time spent dwelling there indicates that specific proposals for residencies may be a waste of time, and a better method - already employed by some organisations, such as The Mattress Factory in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania - is to simply ask for documentation of previous practice, trusting the artist to create work of the expected standard.
