Made by entangled words and wool

In this essay, I highlight a performative and rhizomatic approach to my art-based research using the phenomenon of wool felting to address entangling words and wool fibres as a material-discourse.

description In this essay, I highlight a performative and rhizomatic approach to my art-based research using the phenomenon of wool felting to address entangling words and wool fibres as a material-discourse. I address drifting movements from the notion of a/r/tography as I perceive it, through echo, resonance and re-emergence in my art-based research design. This is done by querying, and caring for, the idea of identity, as I carry many of them, of various nature and various intensities. Furthermore, I decentralise the human in the art-based research methodology that I have been using in recent years in artistic, scholarly and pedagogical contexts. This text dialogues with the recent work of Stephanie Springgay (2020 and 2022), especially her work related to the concept of feltness, and more broadly research-creation (Manning, 2016).
