'Do you miss kimchi?’: A collaborative arts-based narrative of education and migration

M�ller, Marguerite; Kruger, Frans; Jeong, Ji-Hyeon

Abstract

This chapter is an exploration of education and migration. The purpose of our exploration is twofold: firstly, to consider how the concepts of becoming, event and affect allow us to think differently about subjectivity in relation to education and migration, and secondly, to experiment with an arts-based approach to explore
education and migration. We employ an arts-based approach to create a collective biography about the experiences of a South Korean student migrant in Bloemfontein as well as our experiences as teacher migrants in South Korea. In our collective biography, we specifically foreground an affective and sensorial engagement with memory and the new possibilities this creates to conduct educational research.
