Winner of the 2024 Kristine Mann Library Research Award

Some tremendous news, I won the 2024 Kristine Mann Library Research Award, to support scholarship for my forthcoming book The Visual Jung, The Artist’s Journey Through Jungian Training. 📕

The award provides two years of financial support for travel to New York City and research at the library and presentations to the New York Jungian community. The book chronicles my 7 years of training in Boston and Zurich with 180 live drawn sketches from lectures I attended as well as a selection of dreams, reflections and exercises I used to support myself and clients during that time.

A companion text chronicles Jung’s creative self-processing methods as well as the practices of contemporary analysts I will interview regarding their creative activities during training.

It’s an unusual book, for sure, and it means an immense amount to me to have received the support of the committee, The CG Jung Institute New York, The Analytical Psychology Club of New York, and the Kristine Mann Library (the oldest Jungian library in North America). This is just the burst of energy the project needs to carry it through the winter and over the next 2 years of research and writing.

Keep learning! Keep growing! 📚 🤓 🍁
