This winter (2019), the Ethnography Lab Visual Ethnography group will be hosting a series of informal workshops designed to encourage ethnographers to experiment with different mediums to enhance their engagement visually and politically with their work.

One of the themes for winter 2019 is “Putting the Graphic in the Ethnographic.” The first thematic workshop proposes experimenting with collage as a medium for making sense out of the mess of social theory. Participants are encouraged to come prepared with a general research theme or idea that they can represent visually through collage. Materials will be provided.

This workshop will take place:

Date: February 20th, 2019

Time: 4-6pm

Location: Ethnography Lab Seminar Room (UofT Anthropology Building, 19 Russell Street, room 330)

This event will be hosted by anthropology PhD student Maya El Helou.

Upcoming workshops will be announced on a rolling basis from February to April 2019.

The workshops are free and open to the public.
