Abstract
This chapter outlines a framework for reflexive analysis which seeks to move beyond the binary conceptualisation of 'observer' and 'observed' (even when what I am observing is myself and my work) in reflexive analysis to explore the notion of 'me looking at you looking at me looking at you…' The chapter draws on the theories of surplus of seeing and transgredience that emerge from the theoretical work of Bakhtin. A larger study exploring the experiences of male Saudi Arabian nursing students at an Australian university is analysed using this framework to demonstrate its potential to uncover layers of meaning that binary 'observer looking in the mirror' frameworks of reflexive analysis may not have the power to explore.
