Join us for an exciting network, showcase and exploration of research from across King's involving visual and embodied methodologies.

The Visual Embodied Methodologies (VEM) network aims to create spaces of knowledge-exchange and research excellence around visual, embodied and art-based methodologies within, across and beyond Social Sciences. We believe that in using these methodologies lies the potential for co-produced forms of knowledge, opening possibilities to explore otherwise difficult to articulate issues.

We are excited to expand our network and connect, showcase and discuss the work that colleagues do across our faculties. This workshop features colleagues from across SSPP to showcase and discuss the research they do involving visual and embodied methodologies. We are keen to discuss the arts in the social sciences as method of participation, mode of communication, and methodology of knowledge generation, and how we can support each other and our students in this pursuit.

Simultaneously, the VEM ESRC project Intersectional Gendered Violence is presenting the exhibition VEMinism: Imaging Pain and Resistance in the Exchange Space.
