Crystallizing Themes Through the Visual Arts: Antiracism in Schools

• In Event: Visual Arts as Tool and Method in Educational Research

Abstract

Drawing upon critical whiteness studies and crystallization, this paper considers the potential of visual arts to develop and deepen themes during the data analysis process. I elaborate on the visual arts-based process I engaged with during my dissertation exploring antiracist teacher education within schools, discussing how visual arts pushed me to try out analogies, release embodied understandings, and playfully enjoy the project.
