Abstract
In my multimodal presentation, I share a collection of writing fragments, poems, photographs, piano improvisations, and videos to explore my lived experiences of be(com)ing an a/r/tographer as a pianist, teacher, and educational researcher. By sharing my ongoing a/r/tographical journey, I discuss how I am learning to (re)discover the quiet moments of creativity in my life and the ways in which they inform, shape, and inspire my teaching praxis. In the spirit of centring the arts in teaching, learning, and research, my work is rendered through the lens of evocative qualitative inquiry. My intention and hope in sharing my everydayness as a pianist-teacher-researcher is to explore and evoke possibilities for creating more meaningful teaching and learning experiences through the arts and invite further conversations about embracing artistic practices as a pedagogical way of (re)turning to the creative self.
