Abstract

This chapter tells our story of the ‘Relationship Matters’ project. This was a collaborative adventure of how we (six teen girls and Professor Emma Renold) used arts-based methods in a group activist research-engagement project to address sexual harassment in school, online and in our communities. We show how we worked creatively with our own and others’ interview ‘data’ to bring about personal (e.g. in minds and bodies) and political change (e.g. in legislation and practice). Professor Renold has written about the process as making ‘darta’ and ‘dartafacts’ using theories to get us thinking about ‘the emotional power of objects to communicate personal experience on sensitive topics’ (Renold 2017). This is our story of the making of those dartafacts and what they helped us and others achieve.
