Abstract

In this article, I present how drawing offers valuable ethnographic possibilities in care settings where verbal communication is challenging. The empirical examples derive from a study where I drew in situ in dementia care units to explore what residents and staff members found important in their everyday practices. I demonstrate how experimenting with the drawing process as well as the resulting drawings enabled diverse forms of participation to see and unsee matters together with residents and staff members. Treating drawings as steppingstones, meant that inquiries could be shaped together with interlocutors and that questions could be kept open and relevant.

民族志绘画:瑞典痴呆症患者的日常生活。

在这篇文章中，我展示了绘画如何在语言交流具有挑战性的护理环境中提供有价值的民族志可能性。这些实证例子来自于一项研究，我在痴呆症护理单位现场作画，探索住院医生和工作人员在日常实践中发现的重要因素。我展示了如何通过实验绘制过程以及最终的图纸，使不同形式的参与与居民和工作人员一起看到和看不到问题。将绘图作为垫脚石，意味着可以与对话者一起形成调查，问题可以保持开放和相关。

期刊介绍： Medical Anthropology provides a global forum for scholarly articles on the social patterns of ill-health and disease transmission, and experiences of and knowledge about health, illness and wellbeing. These include the nature, organization and movement of peoples, technologies and treatments, and how inequalities pattern access to these. Articles published in the journal showcase the theoretical sophistication, methodological soundness and ethnographic richness of contemporary medical anthropology. Through the publication of empirical articles and editorials, we encourage our authors and readers to engage critically with the key debates of our time. Medical Anthropology invites manuscripts on a wide range of topics, reflecting the diversity and the expanding interests and concerns of researchers in the field.
