Awardee: Catherine Tan
Semester of Award: Fall 2021
Materials Awarded: Camera
Project Description:
I am using the camera to document the spaces, technologies, and artifacts used by my participants–healers who work outside of conventional medicine (e.g., energy healers, shamanic healers, naturopathic doctors). This grant has allowed me to add a new visual dimension to my research–and hone a new skill. I hope to use these images in my slides (for teaching and conferences) and my next book. The Fergusson Grant is truly a great opportunity to access resources for research and teaching.
