> Panel: South Asia Craft - Agency and Tradition.
>
> Abstract: This panel invites papers that focus on South Asian craft
> traditions. It aims to investigate and discuss the role of craft in
> contemporary South Asia, but also the continuity of tradition that
> often juxtaposes itself with agency.
>
> It will be important to address and debate questions of context,
> function, use, meaning, aesthetics and perception. Within the
> postcolonial discourse, notions of representation, identity, memory or
> consumerism could be investigated. Furthermore, contributors could
> problematise questions of status and power as well as the importance
> of craft practices, for instance reflected in the social reality of
> post conflict Kashmir. In this way papers may reflect the diversity
> and complexity of contemporary craft cultures. The panel therefore
> invites proposals engaging with the multiple lineages and usages of
> craft in South Asia that continue to inform their contemporary
> cultural politics.
