Speakers
Description
We invite the participants of the WAAE summit to participate in an open investigation into questions concerning how to didactically plan and perform teaching activities in a post-human context. As new researchers in-becoming in the field of art education, we are curious of how to translate concepts like intra-action, agency and diffraction (Haraway, 1997; Barad, 2007) into art didactics. This includes planning and performing specific teaching activities regarding a transversal and de-hierarchical approach to art didactics. The purpose of the workshop is to explore relational matters through entanglements of embodiment, materiality and affect. We hope the participants will engage and help us in our curiosity and wonder about how to make art education where the teacher can plan and perform in and through the unpredictable and more-than-human.
