ABSTRACT
Runner: Our next presenter tells also about a multi-modal dissertation using collage. Kathleen Vaughan is a visual artist, writer, scholar, and teacher whose work takes a postmodern, postcolonial slant on thematics such as identity and belonging; memory, storytelling, and the cultural artifact; and spirit of place. Intrigued by the application of fine arts methods to scholarship, she is elaborating collage as a framework for interdisciplinary research/creation/ pedagogy. She teaches in the Faculty of Education at York University (Toronto), at the Ontario College of Art and Design, and through visiting artist programs in Toronto schools. You can find out more on her website, www.akaredhanded.com.
