Recipes on arts-based research practice as a form of feminist resistance

Abstract

In this chapter, we play with the metaphor of a recipe to explore arts-based research practices and the impact they have on research on sexism and gender inequality in higher education. Drawing on Hélène Cixous’ bodily and experimental form of writing known as écriture féminine, we challenge the androcentrism of scholarship. This chapter sifts, stirs and combines a mixture of feminist theories and methods to explore the potentiality of a feminine modality in collaborative arts-based research practice.
