Researching education through images

This paper explores the transformative potential of art education. As such, it focuses on how students create art that resonates with the transformative principles of feminist poststructuralism. In this paper I will concentrate of three key aspects of feminist poststructuralism including this theory’s notion of bodies, subjectivity, and politics of transformation. To illustrate these various principles, I will draw upon my own art and the art created by senior secondary students. In doing so, I will highlight how students use the potential of art education to explore their multiple subjectivities, embodiment and lived experiences in their art.
