This article is written based on a teaching situation together with a group of students from early childhood teacher education and a large amount of discarded wool from Norwegian wild sheep. With a-r-t-ography as research methodology and pedagogical strategy, we explore how we can co-create through research, teaching and artistic making with wool, felting, students and places, and in what ways a-r-t-tography contributes to expanding our thinking about teaching when we move the workshop out into the open air. The study is rooted in process philosophy, posthuman perspectives and art-based research.
