This article focuses on the potential of sketching for mobility studies. Crossing the concerns and specificities of mobile methodologies with the issues raised using arts-based methodologies in social sciences, particularly in sociology, we proceed to confront this framework with the experience of a mobile methodology workshop held in the context of a seminar on mobility. The results of this experiment led to the emergence of three central themes when discussing the role of drawing as a tool at the service of mobile methodologies : the apparent determinism imposed by pre-existing skills and abilities in the researcher ; the importance of time when observing the passage of time ; and, finally, the ethical issues associated with drawing on the spot. The paper ends with a reflection on the main challenges of the use of this tool in mobility studies’ research.
