“…Explorations into aspects of embodiment more recently have ranged from writings on body modification techniques and practices such as tattooing and branding (Pitts, 2003; Wohlrab et al, 2007), understandings of disability (Lupton and Seymour, 2000) and masculinity (Gill et al, 2000; 2005), anorexia (Bordo, 1993), cosmetic surgery (Heyes, 2007, Ghigi and Rodler, 2010) post-humanism and materiality (Bakker and Bridge, 2006; Braidotti, 2006; Whatmore, 2006). Embodied methodologies are also being articulated as part of qualitative epistemological approaches in the social sciences though the use of a range of creative techniques (Chadwick, 2016, Mannay, 2016, Perry and Medina, 2015) and include the multimodal use of visually endowed talk and text methods, photo elicitation techniques and collage (Finn and Henwood, 2009; Reavey, 2011), poetic transcribing (Chadwick, 2016), relational mapping (Bagnoli, 2009), memory books (Thomson and Holland, 2005), reality boxes (Winter, 2012), metaphorical models (Gauntlett, 2007), self-portrait, graphic elicitation methods and timeline (Bagnoli, 2009), image-making storytelling (Esin, 2017), digital storytelling (Poletti, 2011, Vacchelli and Peyrefitte, under review) and many other approaches whose variety and spectrum is arduous to fully account for.…”
