Resharing Authority and Taking Care of Drawing as an Emergent Agent in Artistic Research

Abstract

Drawing (a non-human entity) and a human researcher-drawer offer a caring visual-verbal research exploration about drawn care and care for Drawing as
part of ongoing research. The artistic research is a combination of scholarly drawing, drawn bi-directional autoethnographies created in inseparable coop-
eration with an emergent agent: Drawing. The researcher searches for ways to care for her co-researcher Drawing and reader in the text and in/with/by
drawing. The words and visuals in this article aim to complement and compliment each other; their open-endedness mirroring the process[es] of not- and
[un]knowing in/with/by Drawing.
