Abstract

This mixed media painting is part of a series of personal phenomenological inquiries into the learning made uniquely possible by art-making practices during the COVID-19 pandemic. In the process of making of this multilayered piece, I contemplated my evolving identity as an educator and artist-researcher while reflecting on the value of the arts for deep critical reflection, meaning-making, and epistemic noticing in times of crisis. Among the many layers that make up this piece are collaged pages from an old teacher education textbook, handwritten excerpts from a personal journal I kept during this time, and pressed, dried flowers that were given to me by my grandfather many years ago. The emergent themes that evolved from the analysis of this work included the importance of art-making as a diagnostic tool to recognize diseased ways of being in the world; how art-making enables deeper forms of symbolism and metaphor to offer lessons for moving forward with wonder despite the precariousness of current times; and a pathway to reconnection with the wisdom and lessons from my late grandfather. As a method for critical pedagogical reflection, artistic practices can connect us more deeply to ourselves, our teaching practices, and each other and can do so in times of profound disruption, trauma, and change, providing an alternate text to express the lived experience.
祖父的教诲
这幅混合媒介绘画是一系列个人现象学研究的一部分,这些研究是在2019冠状病毒病大流行期间通过艺术创作实践独特地实现的。在创作这幅多层次作品的过程中,我思考了自己作为一名教育家和艺术家研究者的身份演变,同时反思了艺术在危机时期对深刻批判性反思、意义创造和认知注意的价值。在构成这件作品的许多层中,有一本旧教师教育教科书的拼贴页,我在这段时间里保存的个人日记的手写摘录,以及多年前我祖父送给我的压干的鲜花。从对这项工作的分析中演变而来的新兴主题包括:艺术创作作为一种诊断工具的重要性,它可以识别世界上病态的存在方式;艺术创作如何使更深层次的象征主义和隐喻形式能够在当前不稳定的时代中为奇迹前进提供教训;也是一条重新与我已故祖父的智慧和教训联系起来的道路。作为一种批判性教学反思的方法,艺术实践可以更深入地将我们与自己,我们的教学实践以及彼此联系起来,并且可以在深刻的破坏,创伤和变化时期这样做,提供另一种文本来表达生活经验。
