Yet has the war truly become a thing of the past? As those who lived through the war grow older and subsequent generations inherit their memories, experiences of war and displacement are increasingly being remembered not only through testimony and literature, but also through a wide range of artistic forms\u2014film, photography, music, and embodied performance.<\/p>\n<p>Vietnamese American artist Vi\u1ec7t L\u00ea has long explored memories of war, refugee displacement, and diaspora through installation art incorporating film and photography, as well as through performance. In his recent work, L\u00ea has become particularly interested in the relationship between the body and spirituality. By transmuting haunting towards joyful healing\u2014experiences that cannot easily be put into words\u2014through bodily movement, voice, and ritual performances drawing on Vietnamese indigenous religious and spiritual practices\u2014his work explores how the past can be experienced anew and reconfigured through the body in the present.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u30bf\u30a4\u30c8\u30eb\/Title: Embodied Memory and the Art of Healing Vi\u1ec7t L\u00ea Performance L\u00ea-cture \u8b1b\u5e2b\/Lecturer: Vi\u1ec7t L\u00ea \u5143\u30ab\u30ea\u30d5\u30a9\u30eb\u30cb\u30a2\u30fb [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":9759,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[95,97,96,1],"tags":[94,73,51,26,28],"class_list":["post-9728","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news-en","category-other-en","category-other","category-news","tag-general-en","tag-research-en","tag-announcement","tag-general","tag-research"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/fire\/gsiccs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9728","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/fire\/gsiccs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/fire\/gsiccs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/fire\/gsiccs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/fire\/gsiccs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=9728"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/fire\/gsiccs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9728\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":9762,"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/fire\/gsiccs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9728\/revisions\/9762"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/fire\/gsiccs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/9759"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/fire\/gsiccs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=9728"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/fire\/gsiccs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=9728"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/fire\/gsiccs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=9728"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
