Gu\u012b Sh\u00f9 G\u01cen explores the experiences of Chinese students at Wake Forest.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The Lam Museum\u2019s newest exhibit, Gu\u012b Sh\u00f9 G<\/em>\u01cen: Between Belonging and Isolation in the WFU Chinese Community<\/em>, was curated by senior sociology major Hex Li (\u201922).  \u5f52\u5c5e\u611f (Gu\u012b Sh\u00f9 G\u01cen) roughly translates to \u201cSense of Belonging\u201d in English. The exhibit examines how Chinese international students at Wake Forest experience connection, belonging, and isolation, and how their experiences are shaped by daily life on campus, cultural exchanges, and the global pandemic.  Hex conducted ethnographic research among Chinese international students at Wake Forest during the spring semester, focusing on the importance of objects, locations, and social media. Rather than concentrating on interpreting objects in the Museum\u2019s collection, the exhibit illustrates student research through text, everyday objects, images, and interactive experiences.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Honors thesis research by Emily Conway (\u201822) is on exhibit.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Two of the Museum\u2019s informal exhibit spaces are also showcasing Wake Forest student work this summer.  Honors thesis research by senior anthropology major Emily Conway (\u201922) is on display in the hallway next to the staff offices.  In It\u2019s All in the Teeth: An Object Biography for 1978.E.62 and Its Connection to Kiribatian History,<\/em> Emily investigated a necklace from the Museum\u2019s permanent collection.  The necklace of 92 human teeth is from the Pacific island nation of Kiribati, but the Museum had very little additional information about it.  Emily sought to discover whether the teeth were assembled as a result of ancestor veneration or trophy-taking during warfare.  She used morphological analysis, ethnography, social theory, and museum ethical studies in her research.  We won\u2019t give away what she found; you\u2019ll have to come see the exhibit!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Madison Stafford (\u201923), who is working at the Museum this summer, made this drawing during a class visit.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The hallway outside of our education classroom features two groups of student work for the summer.  Students in two sections of the Department for the Study of Religions class Introduction to Islamic Traditions with Dr. Kimberly Wortmann created beautiful art with stencils while visiting the Museum during the spring semester.  Images of the art alongside the students\u2019 commentary are on display.  The hallway also features sketches from Art Department students in Leigh Ann Hallberg\u2019s Life Drawing class, who visited the Museum to draw dolls in our collections.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
