The How….The How…. A/r/tography (Irwin & de Cosson, 2004)
The primary methodology used for this research
study is a/r/tography, an arts-based inquiry that allows me to mashup participatory action research, narrative inquiry, hermeneu tic phenomenology, and autobiographical self-study (Heidegger, Gadamer, and
Ricoeur). It is a relatively new qualitative research methodology that combines the Greek graphia, or writing, alongside the identities of art ist, research and teacher, hence the a/r/t of a/r/tography.

The How….The How…. A/r/tography (Irwin & de Cosson, 2004)
A/r/tography allows for new understandings in
educational research. It is a methodology that flows from the artist/researcher/teacher in praxis.
Working within a scaffolding of metaphors and metonyms We engage in the three-dimensional
(nested) praxis of a sculptor walking/writing an understanding of this active, engaged and
embodied working process.
The How….The How…. A/r/tography (Irwin & de Cosson, 2004)
The How….The How…. A/r/tography (Irwin & de Cosson, 2004)
A sculpture defines itself through itself; it references the world as a living embodiment of its surroundings, in relational aptitude, it points to comprehensible (possibilities) for all who seek. Its (possible) simplicity transcends “boundaries imposed by outmoded discipline-based structures” (Gude, 2004, 8). It has a multiplicity of meanings through the lenses of postmodernism and (non)modernism, a pluralistic understanding contextualized by its location and the prior knowledge of a viewer who engages in a dialogic (Bakhtin, 1981; de Cosson, 2004; de Cosson, 2001) viewing relationship.
The How….The How…. A/r/tography (Irwin & de Cosson, 2004)
A significant component of my research posits the
participants and myself as artists, inquirers and both teachers and learners through a/r/tography (Irwin & de Cosson, 2004).
Traditional qualitative data gathering methods, such as field notes, photo graphs, and interviews, are used in relation to artmaking, cre ative writing, performance, and reflection (Barney, 2006).
