Her book Aesthetics of Excess: The Art and Politics of Black and Latina Embodiment was published by Duke University Press and her most recent exhibition\, Liberatory Adornment: Pamela Council\, Yvette Mayorga\, Kenya (Robinson)\, was on view in 2021 at the Flaten Art Museum. She is currently working on a second book project\, High Maintenance Feminism\, that examines how artists and cultural workers are asserting value and demanding care in a post-2020 context. A public-facing scholar\, Hernandez has launched Full Set Project\, a team of researchers who study and document the impact of nail culture (@fullsetproject) and the video podcast FEM STUDY on her YouTube channel. She has published art reviews and culture articles for Refinery29\, Intervenxions\, and Latina magazine\, and has recently contributed to the exhibition catalogue for The Culture: Hip Hop and Contemporary Art in the 21st Century and Documenting the Nameplate: Jewelry\, Culture\, and Identity. She is an Associate Professor in the Department of Gender\, Sexuality\, and Women’s Studies at the University of Florida. She is the founder of Women on the Rise!\, a project that created art and facilitated critical conversations with teenage girls in Miami from 2004 through 2015 at the Museum of Contemporary Art. \n\n\n\n\n\nMargot Mifflin\n\n\n\nMargot Mifflin is an author\, journalist\, and professor at Lehman College of the City University of New York who writes about women’s history and the arts. She wrote the first history of western women’s tattooing\, Bodies of Subversion: A Secret History of Women and Tattoo (PowerHouse Books)\, and the definitive biography of Olive Oatman\, The Blue Tattoo the Life of Olive Oatman (University of Nebraska Press). Her most recent book\, Looking for Miss America: A Pageant’s 100-Year Quest to Define Womanhood (Counterpoint Press) is a feminist history of the Miss America pageant. \n\n\n\n\n\nSunny Xiang\, Ph.D.\n\n\n\nSunny Xiang studies and teaches race\, war\, and empire through wide-ranging aesthetic\, cultural\, literary\, and documentary materials. She is particularly interested in the methodological questions and perceptual challenges introduced by U.S. military empire in Asia and the Pacific during the mid-twentieth century. Her first book Tonal Intelligence: The Aesthetics of Asian Inscrutability During the Long Cold War was published by Columbia University Press in 2020. Her current project\, Chemical Apophenia: Air Conspiracies and Skin Connections in the Toxic Tropics\, explores how U.S. WWII military science in the Pacific theater generated new paradigms for detecting and combating toxicity in the air– and on the skin. In understanding war\, empire\, and science as not only structures of power but also regimes of perception and styles of knowing\, Xiang’s scholarship shows how aesthetic and cultural approaches can create surprising conversations across Asian American studies\, Pacific studies\, critical militarization studies\, and feminist science studies. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAdditional Information\n\n\n\nPlease see below for additional information regarding the program.
