Abstract

This article extends She-Hero through an inquiry into drawing as a creation-centred practice of continuance. Five drawings are engaged as aesthetic encounters through which relational and perceptual shifts become perceptible, allowing inner authority to emerge as a cultivated capacity to remain responsive to what is unfolding. Drawing is approached as a site of metramorphic reconfiguration where imagination, memory, and embodied sensing participate in the decolonizing of perceptual habits and the restoration of relational ways of knowing.

Author Biography

Darlene St. Georges is a Creation-Centred Scholar and Associate Professor of Art Education, University of Lethbridge. Her research is rooted in an aesthetic-relational paradigm, with a focus on creation-centred literacies and métissage as curricular praxis. Through the creative and imaginative intersections of painting, drawing, and poetic storying, her work explores relational subjectivity, inner authority, and the interconnections of self-in-relation with land, other-than-human and cosmos. www.darlenestgeorges.com Contact: darlene.stgeorges@uleth.ca
