  Collaborative Seeing

The practice I call "collaborative seeing" is a key part of my methodology and has evolved over the course of my research.

As a founding member of the Collaborative Seeing Studio, I am dedicated to working with others to cultivate expanded ways of doing visual research. These include acknowledging different ways seeing, listening to, feeling, re-representing, re-arranging and re-purposing images to engage in research and communicate what we have learned.

Here is a lecture about Collaborative Seeing as it pertained to my project:
