A compelling collection that collages practical experiences and scholarship to give a picture of the transformational possibilities of drawing practices.
Giskin Day, Principal Teaching Fellow, Imperial College London, UK
This collection opens drawing <i>out</i> into the world as a strategy for engagement and social repair while also taking drawing practices <i>in</i> to the self as modes of meditative self-care. It will be a source of inspiration both for health care workers, and carers of all kinds, and for researchers interested in learning more about ethnographic or autoethnographic practices
Susan Squier, Brill Professor Emeritus of English and Women's, Gender, and Sexuality Studies, Penn State University, USA
