"A/r/tography is a form of representation that privileges both text and image as they meet within moments of m�tissage. But most of all, a/r/tography is about each of us living a life of deep meaning enhanced through perceptual practices that reveal what was once hidden, create what has never been know, and imagine what we hope to achieve." In this fascinating volume, the twelve contributors explore the relationships beween the roles of artist, researcher, and teacher as they implement arts-based educational research. Each contributor uses her or his own artistic practices as integral or complementary practices to other forms of inquiry. In each case, the artist-author examines an educational issue and through visual and textual means, pursues theoretical and practical considerations. In these explorations, analysis and interpretation confront our assumptions, bringing them to a place of intersubjective and intrasubjective knowing. Each artist-author engages with theory and practice, art and text, self and other, artist and teacher. In many respects, two points of view are explored: art as phenomenon and art-making as method. Using these points separately or together, the artist-authors explore the fullness of such inquiry for educational research. Through an examination of these art-based texts, readers will come to appreciate educational practices in deeper and more meaningful ways.
