Abstract:
AbstractThis paper is an invitation to contemplate the phenomenon of presence. This is inherently important, in the bigger picture and broader conversation concerning presence and more especially the art of presence as spiritual care. Experience centred narratives are ‘texts’ which bring stories of personal experience into being. The self-narrative (autoethnography) and three additional narratives – co-participants who expressed a willingness to tell their story – is the chosen approach to enable the expression of first-person experience in all its richness, complexity and multiplicity. The essence of presence is portrayed with particular focus on the manifestation, mystery, meaning, movement and ministry dimensions and dynamics of the concept. The patterns and meanings of the lived experience of presence, in the four narratives, emerge beyond the narrative realms of writing, extending into the symbolic realms of art, poetry and music as engaged by the co-informants. This essay is the story of presence in the presence of story – a co-creation of the nature and experience of presence, a tapestry woven on and of the fabric of life.

Abstract:
The author presents the concept of an exhibition dedicated to the tapestry art of ethnic Buryatia since its inception in the region, in the 1970s to the present day. For the first time, in one exhibition were presented the works of 15 authors, performed in different materials and directions. The purpose of the exhibition project is to show the creative achievements of artists, the variety of themes and plots that reflect the specifics of the region. During the preparation for the exhibition, both theoretical and empirical research methods were used: bibliographic sources were studied, meetings, conversations with authors were held in order to obtain a more complete and holistic idea of the concept of the works and the nature of creation. Combining rather disparate materials into a single exhibition concept is currently relevant for the development of modern decorative and applied art in Buryatia in the field of soft materials. As a result, the article presents a kind of artistic space of tapestry art, filled with an individual vision, united by the specifics of expressive means in the field of hand weaving. Автор представляет концепцию выставки, посвященной искусству гобелена этнической Бурятии — со времени его зарождения в регионе в 1970-х гг. до современности. Впервые в одной экспозиции были представлены работы пятнадцати авторов, выполненные в разных материалах и направлениях. Изложена цель выставочного проекта — показать творческие достижения художников, многообразие тем и сюжетов, отражающих специфику региона. В ходе подготовки к выставке использовались как теоретические, так и эмпирические методы исследования: изучались библиографические источники, проводились встречи, беседы с авторами для получения более полного и цельного представления о замысле произведений и характере создания. Объединение довольно разрозненных материалов в единую выставочную концепцию является сегодня актуальным для развития современного декоративно-прикладного искусства Бурятии в области мягких материалов. В статье представлено художественное пространство искусства гобелена, наполненное индивидуальным видением, объединенное спецификой выразительных средств в области ручного ткачества.

Abstract:
Education, and by extension, school-based sexual health education for youth, falls under provincial and territorial jurisdiction in Canada, creating a tapestry of educational experiences across the country. Previous research has found general support for providing sexual health education in schools as reported by teachers, parents, and college/university students. The current study further explores this topic through an examination of the perspectives and opinions of high-school aged youth. The purpose of this study was to develop knowledge to better understand sexual health education experiences in Canada and help determine the extent to which youth feel informed and well supported to develop and maintain their sexual health and participate in healthy sexual and/or romantic relationships. Twelve focus groups were conducted with youth (ages 12–19) across Canada and the transcripts were analyzed using thematic analysis. A total of 10 themes were identified related to what and how youth would like to learn, including four themes about the context and delivery of sexual health education and six themes about the content of sexual health education. Study findings highlight the need for youth perspectives when developing, implementing and evaluating sexual health education and provide insight to help inform recommendations for where educational improvements are warranted.

Abstract:
Background As health care becomes more fragmented, it is even more important to focus on the provision of integrated, coordinated care between health and social care systems. With the aging population, this coordination is even more vital. Information and communication technology (ICT) can support integrated care if the form of technology follows and supports functional integration. Health TAPESTRY (Teams Advancing Patient Experience: Strengthening Quality) is a program centered on the health of older adults, supported by volunteers, primary care teams, community engagement and connections, and an ICT known as the Health TAPESTRY application (TAP-App), a web-based application that supports volunteers in completing client surveys, volunteer coordinators in managing the volunteer program, and primary care teams in requesting and receiving information. Objective This paper describes the development, evolution, and implementation of the TAP-App ICT to share the lessons learned. Methods A case study was conducted with the TAP-App as the case and the perspectives of end users and stakeholders as the units of analysis. The data consisted of researchers’ perspectives on the TAP-App from their own experiences, as well as feedback from other stakeholders and end user groups. Data were collected through written retrospective reflection with the program manager, a specific interview with the technology lead, key emailed questions to the TAP-App developer, and viewpoints and feedback during paper drafting from other research team members. There were 2 iterations of Health TAPESTRY and the TAP-App and we focused on learnings from the second implementation (2018-2020) which was a pragmatic implementation scale-up trial using the Reach, Effectiveness, Adoption, Implementation, and Maintenance framework at 6 primary care sites across Ontario, Canada. Results TAP-App (version 1.0), which was iteratively developed, was introduced as a tool to schedule volunteer and client visits and collect survey data using a tablet computer. TAP-App (version 2.0) was developed based on this initial experience and a desire for a program management tool that focused more on dual flow among users and provided better support for research. The themes of the lessons learned were as follows: iterative feedback is valuable; if ICT will be used for research, develop it with research in mind; prepare for challenges in the integration of ICT into the existing workflow; ask whether interoperability should be a goal; and know that technology cannot do it alone yet—the importance of human touch points. Conclusions Health TAPESTRY is human-centered. The TAP-App does not replace these elements but rather helps enable them. Despite this shift in supporting integrated care, barriers remained to the uptake of the TAP-App that would have allowed a full flow of information between health and social settings in supporting patient care. This indicates the need for an ongoing focus on the human use of ICT in similar programs.

Abstract:
Abstract This paper investigates contemporary gender ideologies as manifested in social media during the 2020 coronavirus pandemic. Using a Feminist Critical Discourse Analysis approach, the author analyses jokes in memes and news items posted through social media in the form of videos, pictures, and texts. Specifically, it focuses on how gender stereotypes and ideologies are constructed and sustained through humour, in several themes built upon gendered representations. The author analyses the complex configuration of factors such as beliefs, stereotypes, and ideologies, which, closely interwoven, form the tapestry of the gender order. Additionally, in order to establish the constancy of gender ideologies over time and across cultures, a correlation is made between the gender ideologies reflected in proverbs and those manifested in the internet memes. The study contends that the complex role of humour enhances the subtle propelling of gender stereotypes and ideologies and ultimately, the existing gender status quo.

Abstract:
Despite media suggestions that youth violence is the result of an epidemic of young thugs “out of control”, this paper argues that youth violence is emblematic of complex political, economic and socio-cultural conditions. This introductory paper discusses some of the key themes and articles from our special issue on Youth violence: De-escalation strategies and socio-legal responses, which is the result of a workshop held at the Oñati International Institute for the Sociology of Law in July 2019. It seeks to reflect the rich tapestry of factors, contexts and processes that can place young people at risk of offending, or, perhaps even more importantly, at risk of criminalisation, as presented in the special issue collection. We reflect on the range of perspectives presented across the special issue on youth violence and the de-escalation of such violence, which seek to advance knowledge, and identify strategies for regulating and preventing this behaviour.

Abstract:
Interdisciplinary psycho-spiritual research into workplace stress and self-care is scant noting the fact that negative self-talk and harsh self-judgement stymie the search for inner meaning and self-care. To address this, this article uses an intuitive and reflection-oriented methodology to research self-care choices for the stressed and suffering worker. In particular, it breaks new ground because no workplace-based applied psycho-spiritual research uses bricolage, let alone the heuristic inquiry process which gives expression to it. Bricolage is a tapestry of ideas, themes and possibilities cobbled together to produce creative outcomes. It adapts and co-opts whatever information from whichever discipline that is necessary. This approach appears well suited to the subjective, intuitive nature of workplace stress and suffering and especially where interdisciplinary approaches to self-care are warranted. The heuristic inquiry process which is used for the first time for workplace self-care works intentionally with interior resources that may be unknown or fragmented and dialogues sensitively with inner ‘rules’ or patterns that may have become problematic. Incubation and reflective illumination produce tacit knowledge to augment healing intuition. This process is illustrated by an example. It is about a less intense focus that actively encourages tender, ‘standing apart’ from symptoms so as to allow perspectives to arise and the intuiting of transformative possibilities. From this, self-compassion, humility and meaningful detachment are re-affirmed as ways to pay self-kindly attention and address self-criticism and self-blame. The contribution of the study is threefold. First, it extends bricolage to workplace self-care by considering inner resistance and negative self-talk, both barriers to self-care. Second, it affirms the heuristic inquiry process as an intuitive method for self-care research. Third, and paradoxically, it shows that self-engagement, in a compassionate yet less intense way, can lead to self-care transformation. Finally, limitations to the study and possibilities for future research are discussed.

Abstract:
Abstract The civilian-soldiers that formed the ranks of the Canadian Corps created a unique soldiers’ culture composed of songs, poetry, doggerel, cartoons, and newspapers during the course of the war to cope with the strain of service. This unique soldiers’ culture offers keen insight into soldiers’ experience. The antihero was one of the most important themes running through soldiers’ culture. In a war where soldiers were elevated to heroes by civilians, the soldiers in turn often chose instead to emphasis the antiheroic in their cultural products. There were several antihero archetypes in Canadian soldiers’ culture, and this essay will examine three: British cartoonist Bruce Bairnsfather’s Old Bill, “old soldiers,” and malingers. While these archetypes were separate, with identifiable qualities, they also bled into one another, creating a rich tapestry of anti-heroic cultural products and icons. These antiheroes provided a voice to the soldiers, even at times a language by which the soldiers could make sense of their war experience. The antiheroes were not always emulated, but their unheroic actions resonated with the trench warriors.

Vertumne et Pomone. Une fable et son décor dans quatre tentures tissées d’or

Résumé de la thèse

L’étude porte sur quatre ensembles de tapisseries que se partagent actuellement le Kunsthistorisches Museum à Vienne, la Fondation Gulbenkian à Lisbonne et les collections du Patrimonio National à Madrid. Chaque série illustre la fable de Vertumne et Pomone issue des Métamorphoses d’Ovide dans un somptueux théâtre de pierre et de verdure. Tissées à Bruxelles vers 1545, les tapisseries racontent en neuf épisodes les transformations de Vertumne, le dieu des saisons, en vue d’approcher et de séduire Pomone, déesse des vergers. A travers l’exploration des composantes historiques, formelles et iconographiques des ensembles tissées, la thèse aborde l’art de tapisserie comme une forme d’expression qu’il s’agit de situer dans l’histoire artistique et culturelle des Pays-Bas méridionaux à l’aube de la seconde moitié du XVIe siècle.

La thèse est divisée en quatre parties qui correspondent à quatre lectures complémentaires de l’œuvre.

Dans la première partie, l’histoire des pièces dans les collections introduit la description et la présentation des quatre séries de tapisseries. La seconde partie étudie les circonstances de production et de création artistique. La troisième partie qui constitue le cœur de la thèse est dévolue à l’étude des thèmes et des formes, à l’exploration de l’imaginaire du jardin de Pomone et de ses décors. La dernière partie dégage les significations secondaires qui naissent de la rencontre de l’œuvre (de son contenu et de son expression formelle) et des circonstances liées à leur usage comme décor princier.

La thèse se présente premièrement comme une contribution à l’histoire de la tapisserie. L’étude de la réception des formes mythologiques et architecturales dans ces chefs-d’œuvre textiles révèlent en outre l’existence d’un concept à la fois mental et formel qui inscrit dans l’œuvre, les rapports entre son destinataire et l’environnement social, idéologique et culturel de ce dernier.

Abstract:
This thesis describes a research project in the South West Tapestry Region of Western Australia which uses phenomenological method to investigate the experiences of farm tourism hosts and guests. The overall aim of the research was to identify motivations of both hosts and guests in order to determine to what degree farm tourism in the SWTR provides the kind of holiday experience people are seeking. Phenomenology was chosen as a flexible yet rigorous methodology for researching lived experience, which would enable an in-depth understanding of motivations surrounding hosting farm tourism and choosing a farm tourism holiday. The initial stage of the project involved the collection of sociodemographic data from farm tourism operators with the purpose of documenting the current status of farm tourism in the region, and to build a regional profile as a context for the phenomenological investigation. Stage I of the research produced some significant findings in terms of expansion in the self-catering sector, seasonal demand patterns and visitor sources, all of which have obvious implications for future development and sustainability of farm tourism in the region. The research found that the amount of time hosts spent with guests in activities was a more important factor in the development of close relationships than accommodation type. The phenomenological investigation found hosts to be highly motivated to provide an enjoyable holiday experience on the farm for their guests, meaningful activities for children, and an opportunity for people to relax and recover from the stresses of city life. They enjoyed meeting new people and engaging in social activities with guests. There were some tensions, particularly around shared space, which need further investigation. The guests' motivations indicated they were seeking the sorts of experiences hosts were able to provide, which augurs well for the sector in terms of future business development. There was a preference from both groups for developing friendships with people who shared a common interest.

Abstract:
Among the treasures of the Montana Museum of Art and Culture is a lovely and elaborate work of art entitled Wars of the Romani, a Flemish tapestry woven in the last third of the 16th century. It is a large weaving, 10 x 15, portraying two armies intertwined in merciless combat. The specific subject matter of Wars of the Romani is unknown, but a standard displaying the Roman eagle held aloft in the background indicates the presence of the Roman legions. The tapestry displays rushing horsemen mounted on vigorous horses, marching spearmen, and supine warriors, imagery common to Flemish battle tapestries from the last quarter of the sixteenth century. Framing the battle scene is a grotesque style border composed of gods placed within whimsical filigree architectural pavilions interwoven with fanciful decoration and mythical beasts. Wars of the Romanis Mannerist battle scene offers a view into the pictorial trends of the late Renaissance and displays the energy of the tumultuous era in which it was woven.

Abstract:
The digital conservation of cultural heritage has received significant attention in recent years. This active area of research endeavors to digitally conserve culturally significant items. The digital archives produced serve as an important resource for conservators. These records allow the accurate tracking of the degradation of the materials used in the construction of these artefacts.This project outlines the digital conservation and subsequent presentation of a historically significant tapestry held by the Royal Collection at Hampton Court Palace. The tapestry is one of The Story of Abraham set constructed by Willem de Kempeneer in Brussels in the 1540s. These tapestries were commissioned by King Henry VIII and were displayed as a reflection of his wealth and power. The materials used in their construction included wool, silk, silver and gold threads. The objectives of the Thesis are as follows:1) To digitally conserve the tapestry, the Oath and Departure of Eliezer.2) To produce a colorimetrically accurate projection system. This system will be used to project an accurate representation of the original tapestry colours onto the current photofaded version.3) To investigate the photo-fading properties of the natural dyes used to produce the Oath and Departure of Eliezer and their interactions with the metallic threads woven within the tapestry.The work presented in this Thesis contributed to a visitor exhibition called "Henry VIII's Tapestries Revealed" held at Hampton Court Palace between April 2009-October 2010 as part of Historic Royal Palaces' celebrations of the 500th anniversary of Henry VIII's accession to the throne.

Abstract:
This project aimed to address the lack of research into the mechanical properties and degradation mechanisms for historical tapestries at the fabric level and understand how effective conservation support strategies can be in the preservation of these artifacts. The research incorporated a large range of techniques from diverse disciplines including weaving, ageing, computer modeling, biochemistry and conservation science. The successful manufacture and ageing of relevant samples provided an excellent opportunity to include testing of historical samples for comparison. Tensile testing of all samples provided a valuable insight into the characteristics of degraded historical samples compared to artificially aged samples. Although individual ageing processes – including UV ageing, Relative Humidity (RH) – thermal cycling and mechanical strain ageing produced a reduction in strength, the historical samples showed a far greater loss of strength due to the combination of all types of ageing in addition to handling and pollution damage. A proteomic analysis of the wool fibres resulted in a greater understanding of the degradative “dark” wool ageing process which suggests that wool yellowing and tendering can be produced not just through photo-chemical reaction. Additionally, the chemical analysis laid an important foundation for future research into linking chemical mechanisms of damage with mechanical loss of strength. Analysis using electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy (EPR) provided an insight into the free radical chemistry of a range of wool/wool samples. It was observed that the light aged samples produced thiyl radicals whereas thioperoxy radicals were seen in the heat-humidity aged samples. This implies separate chemical reactions occur to produce degradation in the different ageing regimes. EPR analysis of some historical samples produced a carbon-based radical peak linked to a soot calibration signal. Further research on historical samples found phenolic radicals, possibly linked to the complex dye chemistry. Further research needs to be undertaken to fully clarify these findings. A world-wide questionnaire to textile conservators has provided a useful resource in terms of a survey of methods and materials used across the world – including technical data as well as more “ethical” motivations for conservation. The results of this survey were used along with the physical data collated in the mechanical testing as information inputted into a finite element model (FEA) to undertake the digital modeling of a tapestry hanging under its own weight. Although more research is needed to fully develop this model, a preliminary investigation has been established which can be used in future research as a tool for textile conservators across the world.

Annotation: The work is dedicated to tapestries from Prague Castle collections, hanging in the State Rooms and the ones that are stored in Prague Castle depository. The tapestries always played an important role in decorating the interior and still help to create a festive atmosphere of this place, usually not accessible to the public. The author focuses on detailed identification of three baroque series known as Anthony and Cleopatra and Months of the year. The serie Anthony and Cleopatra dates back to the turn of the 17th and the 18th centuries. Convolutes of the tapestries of the cycle Months of the year (represented at Prague Castle in two ways - figurally and non-figurally) were made at the beginning of the 18th century as well as in the years 1728-1736. The tapestry on the theme of the life of Anthony and Cleopatra consists of eight pieces. Seven of them belong to an elementary part of Prague Castle collection, the eighth is in Vienna. The serie Months of the year has a similar history. It consists of ten pieces, nine of them are situated at Prague Castle, the tenth is again in Vienna. Longstory short, the work is dedicated to baroque tapestries that help to create genius loci of Prague Castle. After a brief introduction providing the informative insight into the issue, the explanation of the history...

AbstractWhile research on just low-carbon energy transitions is advancing, its manifestation in the cultural domain remains limited. This chapter features analytical and aesthetic interplay by narrating the process and outcome of a co-production process at the intersection of future imaginaries of mobility, salvage frontiers, and energy systems in transformation. It mainframes a rich tapestry of co-produced art by the Rjukan Solarpunk Academy. This accompanied a book workshop convened by the Energy Anthropology Network at the Norwegian Petroleum Museum in Autumn 2021, with images from two exhibitions interspersed in thematic play with nine book chapters. Drawing on the experience of the Just Mobility Transitions Network in Norway, the chapter offers reflective insights on the process through which these research-based, socially engaged art interventions came about.

AbstractRarely in archaeology do we see the flesh and blood of ancient people living their lives? In Australia, a unique archaeological site discovered in 2006 allowed us to do just that as people went about their daily lives during the last glacial maximum. The site is a palaeofilm of men, women and children, walking, running and meandering across a wet area that was obviously special to them. While hundreds of footprints displayed this unusual but moving life tapestry, details of their behaviour and other marks they left behind were difficult or impossible to interpret. Moreover, were some of the marks made by humans or just artefacts of nature? Perhaps we were not making the right interpretation and not picking up clues to the everyday life of these people as well as we might. We required interpretative skills we did not have. To help us we needed to partner with people who had such skills. Pintubi people from Central Australia were asked to help, and they were some of the last people contacted by White Australia in the early 1960s. They had the vital skills of tracking, skills that had kept them alive in the harsh Tanami and Gibson deserts of Central Australia. It was possible that they would be able to apply those skills in reaching out to their ancient Dreamtime ancestors. They also brought that Dreamtime to us.

Abstract:
This chapter weaves together the five major emergent themes presented earlier into a tapestry of imperatives that then guide the reader toward an understanding of, and solutions for addressing the special needs for MENASWA children in American schools. Those five themes—racial identity, resiliency and grit, triple threat, family engagement/involvement, and changes to school structures and policies—are presented in detail. The research related to these themes serves as a reference for school leaders to fully understand and appreciate the challenges facing CLD children and their MENASWA families as they experience life and learning in American schools. Based on that understanding, the chapter presents ways to meet these challenges with positive results, placing those CLD children in a learning environment that allows them to enjoy the same successes as their American counterparts.

Abstract:
There is amassing, in the scholarship on both Jeremiah and on wisdom literature, a growing case for connections between Jeremiah and wisdom. Given that the wisdom worldview takes its starting point from the concept of God as creator and shows a particular interest in the natural world, a quest for such themes in Jeremiah is appropriate. It will be seen that the two themes of creation and wisdom intersect in the message and theological outlook of this prophet and form a key area of concern. Jeremiah is not ‘wisdom literature’ by classification, but there is evidence of wisdom’s genres within its pages, part of a rich tapestry of influences, both literary and theological. I also address the elusive question of who ‘the wise’ are that Jeremiah critiques so vociferously and why he does so.

Abstract:
Though every chapter has some concluding remarks, there is a need to reinforce, qualify, and tie together the different strands of thought in order to assemble together a mosaic image of the contemporary Pentecostal–Charismatic movement in Goa. This attempt to build a cohesive, though not necessarily conclusive, understanding of Pentecostal–Charismatic Christianity is done in the final chapter. Since new religious movements are generally pitted against the mainstream religious establishment and occupy a contested religious space, this chapter discusses themes such as power, identity, evangelization, authoritative discourses, sacred and profane symbols, production of truth and mediation of grace, and terrains of conflict. The mission, the New Testament Church (NTC), the dualistic spiritual worldview, and the formation of a Charismatic habitus that structures and guides the everyday life practices and processes of individual believers are also important strands woven in the book to arrive at a tapestry of Pentecostalism.

Abstract:
Leibniz promoted the idea of binary numbers as part of his programme to mechanize calculation. He argued that binary numerals originate in the Chinese divinatory system known as the I Ching. Mechanical combination is explored in the short story The Library of Babel by Jorge Luis Borges. The fictional library includes books containing all possible combinations of letters. The scale of the library can be understood by considering a sentence of just sixty characters. There are more sequences of sixty characters than there are atoms in the visible universe. Borges and his story formed part of the inspiration for Umberto Eco’s The Name of the Rose, which revolves around a secret library within a medieval monastery.

Abstract:
Chapter 1 discusses labyrinths and mazes as motifs symbolizing the solar cycle from mythology to the Christian era. The labyrinth is engraved on neolithic monuments such as Newgrange in Ireland’s Boyne Valley. The tale is told of Daedalus and the Cretan labyrinth and how Theseus overcame the Minotaur and escaped with the help of Ariadne’s thread. The meaning of the labyrinth in classical mythology is considered. The labyrinth remained an important symbol in the Middle Ages. It is found on the Mappa Mundi in Hereford Cathedral and in other medieval cathedrals such as Chartres. The chapter also discusses the relationship between the labyrinth and the cosmography of Dante’s Divine Comedy.

Abstract:
In the nineteenth century, three mathematicians—Bolyai, Gauss, and Lobachevsky—almost simultaneously discovered the possibility of non-Euclidean or hyperbolic geometries. These geometries rest on axioms that do not include the parallel postulate. This means that many results of Euclidean geometry do not hold. Spherical geometry is considered as a model to illustrate why this is the case. The mathematician Donald Coxeter inspired artist M. C. Escher to produce remarkable artworks based on the hyperbolic geometry of the Poincaré disc. Gauss attempted to measure the curvature of the space around the Earth. Since Einstein, we know that gravity curves space and time.

Abstract:
Chapter 3 moves from the elements of the physical world to the elements of abstract geometry as set out in Euclid’s Elements. It looks at Euclid’s axiomatic method of building geometry step by step from a short collection of definite notions or axioms, and Plato’s allegory of the cave and the world of ideals. In his dialogue Timaeus Plato suggested that each element of matter, Earth, Air, Fire, and Water, is composed of tiny regular solids. He identified the fifth regular solid, the dodecahedron, with the cosmos. Aristotle described the fifth element as aether or quintessence. These ideas lay at the heart of western thought for about 2,000 years, and their influence can be seen in the medieval Christian world system, Renaissance artworks, and the writings of the astronomer Johannes Kepler.

Abstract:
In 2020, I created a body of work that paid attention to the concerns of body image representation of the gay male. The work was shown in a local exhibition in Auckland, called ‘Bear Bodies in Motion’, and it aimed as a critique on the anxieties of body image, especially in the gay bear subculture where there are considerable levels of stigma and shaming of bigger male bodies – made more profound towards bodies of colour. In an attempt at subversion, the creative work, portrayed the bigger body as energetic and aesthetically potent. It combined photography with digital painting and the result was an expression of body acceptance and authorship. Thematically, the image of the gay bear builds on a rich history of homo-oriented art. It plays on the tapestry of the gay identity which determines how it is being represented, negotiated and remixed continually in the gay mainstream. Discourse emanating from gay communities of colour, speaks of attempts to remove colonised attitudes, and in reimagining their heritage and sexual identities authentically. This artistic body of work sought to add to the dialogue that surrounds issues of race, queerness and ‘otherness’. The subsequent conversations which followed the exhibition, unpacked concerns of cultural identity, masculinity and belonging – in which seem to be heavily burdened by western-influenced and racialised notions of performativity. Through research, and taking in the ephemera that surrounds the discourse of the colonised body image, I begun to create work that seeks to further add to the discourse. This heavily illustrated paper reflects on the creative process in the art making of ‘Bear Bodies in Motion’. The methodology underpinning this artistic body of work is ‘reflection-in-action’, and it draws inspiration from research in the ‘lived experience’. Additionally it also consider its move from traditional mediums to the consideration of technology as a platform for storytelling, from the print medium to digital spaces – in this instance, the inclusion of Augmented Reality (AR). With this extension, AR provides the viewer the opportunity to take a more active role in reading the text. The experience moves the work into a more participatory space, where the narrative becomes more palpable and appreciated. The making journey is outlined from conceptual stage to the finalised artistic work from my personal lens who is both artist-maker and design practitioner. This paper also discusses the challenges and conflicts in creating a body of work of this nature. Especially of concern is its need for sensitivity in the representation of non-euro cultures – with greater emphasis given to the consideration for its homosexual themes, and to the identities of my participants as they were from the community itself. This paper also includes my reflections and personal insights in how this approach to a practice-led research has contributed to my own learning and teaching approach. Being an educator myself, this process has given me greater empathy and understanding in the student journey within today’s higher education environment.
