Artist Statement
These are a selection of my doctoral creation-research artworks, which are part of a collection called Embodied Landscapes (EL). This research was a self-in-relation inquiry about identity and subjectivity, fostered by the seed of my research journey of retrieving my Métis identity. It is a storying journey, using my own photos, images, poems, and stories that are woven, mixing, and layered as artistic assemblages. EL values knowledge embedded in and generated from experiences, memories, intuitions, dreams, visions, and ancestral wisdom, recognizing being, as in-motion and relational.​

Darlene St Georges
Lethbridge University
Darlene St Georges is assistant professor of art education at the University of Lethbridge. Much of her creation-research scholarship is rooted in emergent and generative knowledge(s) that honours the reflexive quality of going inward. Her theoretical and creation-based approach recognizes the creative, critical, spiritual and performative ways of knowing in the world.
