Walking with Faye from a direct access hostel to her special place in the city: walking, body and image space. A visual essay

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

This article shares a walk with Faye, who was living in a direct access hostel, and Open Clasp women’s theatre company, to think through the themes of this special edition: the role of vision and imagery in fostering the imagination, ‘creative seeing’ and creative knowing. As a participatory, arts-based methodology, walking has much to recommend it, especially when combined with visual and biographical forms of research.
