DESCRIPTION:My research focuses on how young men in prison perform/form/re
 form their narrative identity during the participation in a new spoken wor
 d poetry programme in a Macedonian prison. In this presentation I will ela
 borate and illustrate the use of the method of cubist poetic portraiture f
 or life story analysis which yields profound insights into the nature of n
 arrative identity. The cubist poetic portraiture method involves reflectiv
 e processes of combining narrative\, cubist poetic techniques\, and collag
 e making as data generation\, interpretation and findings clarification. \
 n\n\n*Afrodita Nikolova* is an award-winning poet/performer and educator/r
 esearcher fascinated by the cross-pollination of disciplines as well as th
 e role of the arts\, research\, creativities and imagination in personal g
 rowth\, social justice\, and world-making.  A part of the Versopolis platf
 orm for emerging European poets\, Afrodita is currently completing a PhD i
 n at the Faculty of Education\, University of Cambridge where she’s been
  at the core of the arts-based research event Arts Kaleidoscope in the pas
 t five years. Hear more about the use of spoken word poetry as a research 
 method in a TEDx University of Cambridge talk by Afrodita here: https://ww
