Given Kahlo's special bond with San Francisco and the city's impact on her art and her fashion, presenting the exhibition in this venue carries special significance. Many iconic photographs that show Kahlo as a Tehuana (by Cunningham, Adams, Alvarez Bravo, and Weston) are from San Francisco, and her first self-portrait in full Tehuana attire was painted in San Francisco (now in the collection of SFMOMA). Frida Kahlo's encounters with "Gringolandia" (as she called the United States) were formative and complex.

The Embodied Art Therapy Process (TEATP) focuses on the co-creation of embodied artistic expressions to promote self-awareness and autonomy for children.

While acknowledging that the horror film is generally not considered a major part of the ‘Singapore new wave’, this article makes the case that Singapore horror films nevertheless merit closer critical evaluation not only because of their sustained output in a very small industry, but also because of their articulation of a range of issues germane to Singapore nationhood and identity ‐ issues which obtain in other Singapore films as well.

This article considers the implications of the popularisation of Facebook groups that share historical photographs for the writing of Thai national and photographic histories.

In the late 1960s, New York environmental psychologist, inventor and artist Serge Boutourline proposed a signal-oriented approach for describing the interdependencies and interactions between the individual and the environment.

The study and practice of design is deeply rooted in culture and tradition, establishing resilience through its proven methods and producing robustness in the continual development of knowledge and skills.

Cultural collectives that are driven by community centered thinking and social purpose require new strategies for organization and sustainability. Taking a case study of a Malaysian collective that uses literature and reading as a methodology for public space reclamation and the cultivation of a culture of dissent, the question of organizational management for non-organizations is raised. Buku Jalanan is a self-identified collective lacking formal structure that has evolved from its founding group into a nationwide movement spawning nearly 100 chapters.

Cover Art: Critical reflection is at the core of how I purposefully consider and make sense of my various roles, responsibilities, and contributions as a professional and credentialed art therapist, educator, and artist within various contexts, both locally and abroad. As such, I often find myself working within fast-paced and complex situations, sometimes confronted by rigid constructs, systems, and perspectives.

The process of design explicates the procedural knowledge of design activities, shifting theoretical conceptions across practical dimensions. Design thinking, as a creative and innovative methodology, has been established as a designerly process for non-designers to address complex problems. This article reviews the implications of introducing the design thinking methodology as a pedagogical approach in design education at LASALLE College of the Arts in Singapore, generating new knowledge to inform the research spaces of design practice and theory.
