Description
dây/dó (here/there) explores how transnational collaboration in the Asia-Pacific can sustain craft knowledge, cultural heritage, and livelihoods in a time of ecological and social precarity.
Bringing together critical scholarship and creative practice, the book examines cross-cultural exchange as both a possibility and a problem: a space for reciprocal learning and innovation, but also one that can reproduce colonial hierarchies of cultural value.
Attentive to mobility, tradition, and longstanding ecological practices, dây/dó (here/there) offers new ways of imagining craft, creativity, and sustainability in an interconnected world—speaking to scholars, practitioners, and anyone interested in intercultural creative futures.
