Abstract
This paper discusses a frame to reflect on the role of aesthetics in the development of a multimodal approach to critical pedagogy for adult education.We are three women, currently on a research journey, aiming to re-connect some binaries in our lives: personal and professional, theory and practice, body and affect.What could be learned in conversation with three different artists (a musician, a dancer, and a visual artist) about the regimes of truth in our language, and what/who is ‘kept out’ from adult education research and learning settings? Will new con-versations, new dialogical detours into other modes of knowing and being, bring to life the circularity of syntactic and semantics? We are going to first each interview one artist auto/biographically; and then, by cooperatively writing as inquiry, we are going to draw on the interview material to play with academic language, identity, and spirituality in adult education.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
