Author: Ngo, HuongIn this volume, Ngô turns to a series of early 20th-century photographs showing foreign trees and tree grafts planted in Vietnam by the French, looking at histori es of colonial violence through image-making, translations & material investigations. For the artist, grafting serves as a powerful metaphor for the physical violence inherent in colonialism. Includes essays and interviews that reflect on the connection between Ngô’s work & global anticolonialism, the trans-Indigenous and the archive. ISBN 9781941753651.
