I'm thrilled to share this feature article of my recent work as well as my cover art "Banda Island Archipelago" gracing the cover of Cultural Politics Journal of Duke University Press. Check out the article and the issue here.

I want to acknowledge the generosity of curator Deborah Frizzell and the editors for inviting me to organize and share my thoughts on this platform. I also want to thank Jim Blasi for the gorgeous graphic design layout. And lastly, the beautiful convergence of August 2017 for having my Banda Island Archipelago print on the cover of Duke University Press' publication while also showing the actual silk print at the Jame B. Duke House (NYU Institute of Fine Arts)...all during the 350 year commemoration of the Treaty of Breda.
