We become gardens: intersectional methodologies for mutual flourishing

ABSTRACT In this paper, members of the Re-creation Collective offer key methodological practices that nourish us and our work together. These include deep visiting, intersectional praxis, (re)visiting accessibility, and accountability revisited. This methodological sharing is not intended to be prescriptive: there is not one ‘recipe’ for doing this work. We offer an emergent collection of hows, rather than a predictable list of whats. Nor is this sharing intended to be descriptive of all of the methodological choices we have made. Rather, we intend this sharing as inscriptive: some of the most profound ways our processes have marked us; a way to leave traces of our learnings for others; an offering of approaches for carving out methodological spaces that are capacious and profound enough to bring our many selves into.
