Asia, Oceania and the Americas: Cultural and Artistic Crosscurrents
Wed, November 19, 9:45 to 11:15am, TBASession Submission Type: Paper Session
Abstract
This panel examines the multiple ways in which Latin America engages with Asia and Oceania through environmental perspectives and cultural exchange. The presentations address topics such as representations of nature and sound in literature, artistic and poetic reflections on ecological challenges, the influence of geographic relocation on cultural production, and the creation of hybrid musical forms that blend traditions from different regions. Together, they reveal how creative practices respond to shared environmental concerns, reframe cultural identities, and foster new dialogues across the Pacific
