Abstract

Poetry is useful in consumer culture research, as a form of inquiry and as a theoretical lens through which to interpret consumer experiences. This paper draws on eco-art workshops run with marginalised participants to explore the potential of collective poetising and poetry in challenging historical legacies and imagine possible futures.
