Abstrakt

This article reports on a project that employed narrative inquiry captured on film to explore the creative practices of five mature graduates. They had previously been mature students and continued to work within their various communities after they had left formal education.The participants were asked to describe their creative practice and its impact on other people through interviews and presentations. A researcher with help from a professional filmmaker carried out the project. From the initial footage, three polished, edited versions of the films were made. The participants could use the films to promote their own work if they so wished.
Narrative inquiry is a means of seeing the connections between significant incidents and longerterm impact beyond formal education. The film footage was able to capture the connectivity between formal education, the participants and the people who had been touched by their creative practices. It successfully gave a narrative coherence to the participants’ stories. Where appropriate, the visual aspects of creativity were captured, in this case, the participants all had a creative practice, and the visual realm was an important part of their stories.The findings of the project were that the participants had some shared values about the importanceof creative education. They all developed portfolio careers in order to carry on their creative work. Allthe participants were able to give examples of particular instances where their creative practice hadhad an impact on other people. In other words, adult learning does not just influence the individual
but can have a wider and longer-term impact on others.
