Affect, Knowledge and Embodiment:A Critical Feminist Arts/Research Workshop

SEAE Faculty of Education Southern Cross Uni

A Critical Feminist Arts/Research Workshop (and zine!)  by Dr Ash Watson, Dr Laura Rodriguez Castro, and Dr Sam Trayhurn.

Southern Cross University, Gold Coast Campus

In this workshop, we explore ways of practically extending critical and feminist social research with art – specifically sociological fiction and zine making. These arts practices are valuable for opening up how we critically explore, analyse, collaborate on, and share experiences and understandings of the social world.The workshop involves talks on participatory arts methods, sociological fiction, and zine making. Talks are followed by a practical workshop, where participants collaboratively experiment with each of these methods to explore themes of affect, knowledge, and embodiment. We produce a zine on the day, a ‘curated sociology’ of photography, research writing and fiction interventions, to be published with <a href="https://francesstreetpress.com/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Frances St Press</a>.
