SUMMARY:CORDITEX Textile Talks: Collaborations in Abaca
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Cheree Quizon\nAssociate Professor of Anthropology\nSeton Hall University\, New Jersey\nJuly 17\, 2024 (Wednesday)\n10:00-11:30 AM via Zoom\n\nThe CORDITEX is very pleased to have Dr. Cheree Quizon\, textile scholar and anthropologist par excellence. Her talk will explore aspects of the cultural history of cloth made with banana fiber (Musa sp.)\, the signature thread used by Bagobo\, other Mindanao groups as well as in weavers in the Ryukyus\, Japan. Engaging in a “hyperlocal” inquiry into these breathtaking ikat-patterned textiles\, she asks what may be learned through a “material culture of proof” that looks beyond a single tradition or community by discussing two collaborations on the fiber itself on one hand\, and dyes used on the fiber\, on the other.\n\nDr. Cheree Quizon studies the knowledge systems and social formations relating to the textiles and dress of the Bagobo\, one of several indigenous peoples of the Davao region\, Mindanao\, the Philippines. She has published widely on US colonial-era museum collections examined through the lens of contemporary fieldwork in the origin community\, with comparative survey research into related traditions among Tboli in the Lake Sebu area\, Blaan in the Malungon and Matanao areas and Mandaya in the Caraga area.\n\nPrimarily interested in indigenous semantic categories of cloth and dress\, more recent publications on ethnobotany as well as ongoing interdisciplinary collaborations using isotope methods to study the dispersal of textile banana fiber continues to broaden her inquiry. She is Associate Professor of Anthropology and Chairperson of the Department of Sociology\, Anthropology and Criminal Justice at Seton Hall University in New Jersey.\n\nTo join the webinar\, click the Zoom registration below:\nhttps://up-edu.zoom.us/…/regi…/WN_TmdoMvExTr2narZZinigwg
