Abstract
Background:
In participatory research, co-researchers and university researchers aim to co-produce and disseminate knowledge across difference in order to contribute to social and practice as well as research. The approaches often employ arts-based research methods to elicit experiential, embodied, affective, aesthetic ways of knowing. The use of arts-based research in co-production is embedded in a contested discursive terrain. Here, it is embroiled in political struggles for legitimacy revolving around what counts as knowledge and whose knowledge counts.
Aims and objectives:
The aim is to present and illustrate the use of a theoretical framework for analyzing the complexities of co-production in the nexus between arts and research - in particular, in the tension between cultivating the collaborative, creative process and producing specific research outputs. The article maps out the contested discursive terrain of arts-based co-production, and illustrates the use of the theoretical framework in analysis of a participatory research project about dance for people with Parkinson’s disease and their spouses-
Methods:
The theoretical framework combines Bakhtin’s theory of dialogue, Foucault’s theory of power/knowledge and discourse, Wetherell’s theory of affect and emotion and work in arts-based research on embodied, affective, aesthetic knowing.
Findings:
The analysis shows how arts-based processes of co-production elicit embodied, emotional, aesthetic knowing and with what consequences for the research-based knowledge and other outputs generated.
Discussion and conclusions:
Trying to contribute to both research and practice entails navigating in a discursive terrain in which criteria for judging results, outputs and impact are often defined across conflicting discourses.
