MY PHOTO STORY:
Cultural Visualization of a Burmese International Student
Show Tun
| This paper introduces snap shots of my tribally diverse country, Burma (Myanmar), as I express myself with the display of my personal pictures from home. I have also included photos of my new life as an international college student in the United States. |
Kathryn Wilson
| This essay describes the exhibition of creative artworks of 18 "contemporary ethnic women," which were displayed at the Balch Institute for Ethnic Studies in the Fall '98 season. These ethnic women represented African American, Asian, Hispanic, and Native American cultural heritage. Wilson describes how these artists used multiple visual modes such as painting, sculpture, photography, fabric art, and iconography to "engender" their female self embedded in, yet sometimes collided with, their heritage. |
