Contemporary Art and Globalization Study Day Session 5: Travels in a New World
Mohini Chandra discusses the way in which post-colonial Indian communities in the Pacific have incorporated photography into visual and historical processes, which map the fluidity of their own, increasingly diasporic, cultural identity. She then considers her own role as interpreter, interlocutor and member of global and local cultures as she traverses geographic and temporal distance via internalised 'diasporic' maps of family and personal remembrances.
