Rhetorical Curation of Patient Art: How Community Literacy Scholars Can Contribute to Healthcare Professions
Novotny, Maria
Community Literacy Journal, v15 n2 Article 8 p84-96 Spr 2021
In the era of a global pandemic, this article claims that community literacy scholars are well poised to support challenges currently facing healthcare providers. To demonstrate this, I offer one example drawing on my work with The ART of Infertility and explain how I repurposed patient art and stories to curate emotional literacy amongst healthcare professionals. I argue that "rhetorical curation" is an innovative method that can support public engagement around stigmatized or underrepresented health experiences. I end with an invitation for community literacy scholars to build upon their expertise and design innovative public projects that contribute to improvements in healthcare.
