Annie Jael Kwan from Asia-Art-Activism & co-editor Joanna Wolfarth give a Zoom discussion on ASIA-ART-ACTIVISM: Experiments in Care and Collective Disobedience - a polyvocal collection of original essays, texts and images by leading academics, artists, curators and activists, which explore questions of diaspora, collectivism, and solidarity in art practice, pedagogy, and theory.
The book is a polyvocal collection of 18 essays by leading academics, artists, curators and researchers who address urgent questions of the complexities of UK Black/Asian race relations and migrations, in parallel with global Black/Asia political entanglements and tensions, reflections on the rise of anti-Asian/migrant sentiment in the UK in relation to the ‘Hostile environment’ and the weaponisation of the Covid-19 pandemic.
