Research Project
Hosting the Divine: The Kolam in Tamil Nadu
This ethnographic project is centered on the examination of an aesthetic practice, the kolam, a women's ritual art performed everyday by millions of Tamil Hindu women. It attempts to illustrate a more nuanced complexity of women's lives through women's own exegesis of their world view.
