Abstract | This article explores how artist-researchers navigate the "uncertain" space between theory and practice in a new Doctor of Creative Arts (DCA) program in an Australian regional university. The trickster is deployed as a metaphorical device to provide insights into how the first DCA's candidates, their supervisors, and the university's leadership make sense of their own experiences "within" and "about" the practice-led research program under a neoliberal climate. Tricksters' cross boundaries between critical and imaginary spaces; yet they also "create" boundaries, by extending collective knowledge into the unknown. This process is entirely consistent with the critical and creative work required by doctoral candidates to produce innovative research. Narrative inquiry is applied in accordance with the artist-trickster's subjective agency within practice-led doctoral study. The article charts the DCA's emerging identity as a doctoral qualification equal to the traditional PhD but different from it, during its implementation in 2016 to the first successful completion in 2019. The findings reveal the benefits of the program's innovative design, grounded in the creation of its distinctive community of practice that supports practice-led research, local and international connections, and regional resilience.
