Visual Ethnography and Storytelling
Ursula Lang
An image gathers together forces, making a world and, in turn, affecting that world.
The making of images is always the making of meanings. And neither images nor meanings are fixed. Images, like knowledge, are always partial, situated and power laden, with unpredictable impacts and forces. My scholarly research practice is guided by intersectional feminist geographies, and in conversation with ethnographic writing at the junction of cultural studies and anthropology.
I explore critical ethnographic methods, including making photographs, in order to find and understand our attunements to surroundings, place, and other living beings.
This work has taken shape in peer-reviewed scholarly articles, conference presentations and panel discussions, research workshops, and an ongoing passion for experiments with relationships between text and image.
