Tema Genus invites to the open Higher seminar with Karolina Żyniewicz:

It matters what stories tell stories. Autoethnography as a method of transmattered studies

Zoom: https://liu-se.zoom.us/j/61146574722?pwd=cTBZNnhJUFQyNHNkZnJLWEVpT1N6Zz09

Meeting ID: 611 4657 4722

Passcode: 521852



Abstract: I did not find autoethnography, it was this method finding me. I used to work following an autoethnographic approach even before I learned about the existence of such a method, as my artistic practice has always been a form of autoethnography. This is a method which does not require anyone to limit his/her own identity or interests, it allows one to be an artist, a researcher, and an academic at the same time. In 2017 I wrote an article entitled: The Autoethnography of a Woman Artist Engaged in Art&Science Projects in Biological Laboratories (Żyniewicz 2017, p.103-126) to clarify why I decided to embrace analytic autoethnography instead of evocative one. I wanted to make clear to everyone, including myself, that I was indeed following an academic method of research. Then I realized that actually my research activity was combining both the analytic and the evocative approaches to autoethnography, without causing any conflict. The questions are: How to convince the conservative academic environment to use the experimental methodology? Why is sharing the individual perspective of the researcher is still so controversial for academia? What is more important, the idea of the research or its being acceptable and defensible in the academic context?

Karolina Żyniewicz is an artist (2009 graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts in Łódź, Department of Visual Arts) and researcher, PhD student (Nature-Culture Transdisciplinary PhD Program at Artes Liberales Faculty, University of Warsaw). Working in a laboratory (mostly at the Institute of Genetics and Biotechnology, Faculty of Biology, University of Warsaw) locates her works in the field of bio art, although she tries to avoid using this term. She sees her liminal activity as situated knowledge production. She is mostly focused on life in its broad understanding (its biological and cultural meaning). Her projects have mostly conceptual, critical character. The main point of her PhD research interest are multilevel relations emerging during realization of liminal projects. She tries to put her observations, as an artist/researcher (liminal being), in the context of Science and Technology Studies (STS) Actor-Network Theory by Bruno Latour and feminist humanities.
