This issue of the Nordic Journal for Art & Research is the second part of the special issue focusing on the arts-based methodology of a/r/tography as it is understood and practiced in the Nordic countries. Living as an A/r/tographer – A Nordic Perspective sheds light on the a/r/tographic connections created in the dynamic in-between spaces between artist, researcher, and teacher (A-rtist/R-esearcher/T-eacher). These connections involve the individual and personal as well as the social, for example within communities of practice. The aim of this special issue is to contribute knowledge that highlights the unique perspectives characterizing the work of academic staff engaged in artistic practices within Nordic teacher education. This second (and final) part of the special issue consists of an introduction, six peer-reviewed scientific articles, and one exploratory text.
