The new zine publication consists of eight parts: four new publications emerging from the collaborative artistic research initiatives for the Forest Curriculum's HTNBAN project and four new editions of existing publications developed through the Forest Curriculum’s previous engagements and projects. The volumes of the zine series include Fugue by Cristian Tablazon, In the Mountain the Only Money is Opium by Pujita Guha, Making a Stand of Trees: Reforesting Disavowal by Huiying Ng, Forest Textuality by Chairat Polmuk, Two Texts for Transness by Tao Lei Goffe and Wong Bing Hao, Heat (Stress) by Kent Chan and Dennis Dizon, Biography of a Fish by Dharmendra Prasad, Omehen by Alfred Marasigan and Karl Castro, Lusia by Cahyo Prayogo and Red Murti and A Pantry of Things by Ezekiel Sales.Item type | Current library | Collection | Call number | Status | Date due | Barcode |
