This companion demonstrates how art, craft, and visual culture education activate social imagination and action that is equity- and justice-driven. Specifically, this book provides arts-engaged, intersectional understandings of decolonization in the contemporary art world that cross disciplinary lines. Visual and traditional essays in this book combine current scholarship with pragmatic strategies and insights grounded in the reality of socio-cultural, political, and economic communities across the globe. Across three sections (creative shorts, enacted encounters, and ruminative research), a diverse group of authors address themes of histories, space and land, mind and body, and the digital realm. Chapters highlight and illustrate how artists, educators, and researchers grapple with decolonial methods, theories, and strategies—in research, artmaking, and pedagogical practice. Each chapter includes discursive questions and resources for further engagement with the topics at hand. The book is targeted towards scholars and practitioners of art education, studio art, and art history, K-12 art teachers, as well as artist educators and teaching artists in museums and communities.

Rebecca and Courtney Marks, two sisters living with their single father, are unprepared for the twist in their life on one hot, August day. Of all the things that could transport them to an alternate universe, their mother's silver hand-mirror is the last thing they would have expected to land them in Viguanagura, a world that is still in the Medieval Ages. As the girls set out on their quest to find a mysterious man who can send them back home, they become involved in a revolution against the king and a dispute between the creatures called griffentaurs. Struggling to stay alive and stick together, Rebecca and Courtney become more involved in Viguanagura's fate and its mysterious age-old prophecy. Now, not only are they searching for a way home, but they are also on a path Destiny has set before them. Setting foot on Viguanagura's soil was only the first step in making the prophecy come true. Many more events will follow, and burning terrors is the least of their worries.

Two years after their first trip to Viguanagura, Courtney and Rebecca have trouble adapting to "normal" life. While home for Christmas break, the sisters find the magical mirror that originally transported them to the enchanting world and are once again caught up in a fantastical adventure. Restoration after the revolution is still in progress, but along with these many changes comes a new problem. Girls are being kidnapped from the villages. While trying to help catch the kidnapper, Rebecca herself is taken captive along with her friend Jennifer. The only clue to the identity of the kidnapper is his unnerving yellow eyes. While Courtney embarks on a quest to rescue her sister, many more unsettling things surface about the dark past of Viguanagura, all of which seem to revolve around the illusive kidnapper. The prophecy once again becomes entangled in her life, and she discovers the harrowing truth about who her parents really are. As she struggles to find herself, she realizes that the truth doesn't always need to be uncovered.
