Untitled: Women's Work

Untitled: Women’s Work is both scholarly art and artistic research using narrative inquiry, dance and film as research methods. The research looks at the embodied experience of a group of women in the work place. Methodology for this research was to use an embodied approach across the whole research process from dancing with participants as part of the date collection process, to using choreographic tasks to analyze the data and finally using dance and film to disseminate the ‘findings’.
The research looked at the lived experience of women living and working in the Flint and Detroit areas, USA. It is an attempt to take the body and bodily experiences ‘seriously’ when we research. The research took the position that embodiment is a methodology and method for understanding the narratives of the women’s work and what makes a ‘good’ job. I saw dance and visual images as a language for communication of the ideas the research uncovered.
Data collection asked women participants what they considered makes a good job along with collecting their memories of their own working experiences (this was done through dancing together and verbal interviews). Analysis drew out two themes: relationships (developed and negotiated in the situation of work and Self), and rhythms (of Self and work institution). Initial findings presented here suggest the continual establishment, disruption, negotiation and maintenance of rhythms and relationships in the work place has an impact on what makes a ‘good’ job.
The research is part of my on-going study of how an embodied approach to the lived experience (based of Pragmatist and Phenomenological principles that place bodily experience as central to meaning making) can be embedded into the whole research process. This challenges ‘traditional’ research methods, that it could be argued, place the body as an add-on to text-based theory even when the research subject it self is about people's experiences.
About exchanging a portrait •
(2016)
author(s): Gert Germeraad
published in: Research Catalogue
This is a text concerning artistic processes. It has a starting point in a project where I am making a portrait of a colleague artist while he is making mine. During the making of this portrait and thereafter I question my ways of working in which I occasionally find myself confronted with artistic blocks. In a period of two and a half years I investigate and articulate my artistic process as it meanders and expends over the different attitudes and problems I encounter in my work. I give a critical analysis of my motives and working methods and try to extend the range of possible ways of working.
This text can be read as an extension of my previous text "Rationality, Intuition and Emotion, exploring an artistic process" that is published in the Journal for Artistic Research, JAR 3.

sin ∞ fin - The Movie | A performance-based art film project by VestAndPage (Andrea Pagnes & Verena Stenke)
(2016)
author(s): Andrea Pagnes
published in: Research Catalogue
Inspired by Peter Sloterdijk’s investigation dissecting Micro- and Macro- spherology in his trilogy Spheres, and by Italo Calvino’s novel Invisible Cities, the moving image project sin ∞ fin – The Movie by VestAndPage is based on various stages of research to conjugate performance art with filmmaking. Its final result consists of an art film trilogy produced along the course of three years in the following artist-in-residence programs: CONFL!CTA Contemporary Art and Science Research (Punta Arenas, Chile, 2010); Sarai CSDS Centre for the Studies of Developing Societies (New Delhi, India, 2011); Cultural Program of the DNA Dirección Nacional del Antártico (Antarctica / Buenos Aires, Argentina, 2012), and based on performances conceived site-specific.
