Abstract
Vulnerable art education As we acknowledge our shared exposure to the pandemic and our reliance on human innovation to devise and apportion remedies, COVID-19 defies self-sufficiency as a common rationality. Illusions of self-contained individualism have been undermined as we weather waves of airborne variants. Ultimately, as Butler (2004) asserts, we are implicated in the lives of others and have always been. Therefore, autonomy inherently contains a proximity and vulnerability to others already in community on planet earth. Put simply, COVID-19 has illustrated that individual safety and survival depends on the actions of another. Many of our readers exist in autonomy-supporting societies that have made individuals take measures in relation to the tensioned balance between heteronomy and autonomy during our COVID-19 era. Our personal freedoms and professional customs have been violated, diminished and amended while notions of rational autonomy have been pushed to their limits.
