Resumo:The paper addresses the role of creativity and imagination in research. It challenges the dichotomized view of research, working with oppositional options: qualitative X quantitative or academic X applied, offering a more pragmatic and context-oriented approach. This view is grounded in an epistemology that embraces research as a social practice. The paper presents a research project where methods from the arts are applied as a way to embrace creativity and imagination in research. It concludes that this approach shift research from discovery to generativity. It also moves research away from just hypothesis testing to a focus on local knowledge. Finally, the role of the researcher also shifts from the “power over” to a position of “power with” by virtue of an openness to consideration of whose voices are heard, included, excluded, and so forth.
