For this SoAH Presents, co-leads of SoAH's new research group, Ecologies of Diversity. Professor Sarah Cheang and Dr Alana Jelinek will present their current multi and interdisciplinary research projects.
Sarah will present her exploration of the various entanglements of the silver fox, once a fashion staple for women of the early twentieth century and Alana will describe some of the unexpected outcomes of her work with the Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology at the University of Cambridge.
The talks will be chaired by Professor Paul Goodwin, UAL Chair of Contemporary Art and Urbanism and Research Centre for Transnational Art, Identity and Nation.
Ecologies of Diversity is all about raising the profile of research that has diversity as its heart, whether this means mechanisms and cultures of marginalisation or research that focuses on cultures and approaches that foster and instill diversity. We do not define diversity, except as a state of variety. Diversity in our research may include race, gender, ability, sexuality, species, religion, culture, health, age, biological characteristics, neurological characteristics and any other organising principle through which inclusion/exclusion dynamics occur.
