Sinossi

Cultural Appropriation Debate explores the nuanced issue of cultural appropriation in film and television, questioning when borrowing from other cultures becomes disrespectful exploitation rather than creative homage. It unpacks the spectrum of cultural appropriation, highlighting the importance of understanding power dynamics and historical contexts. For instance, the book analyzes how cultural elements are often misrepresented, reinforcing harmful stereotypes on screen.

 
The book emphasizes that cultural appropriation is not a simple concept, by tracing its roots to colonialism and examining the economic exploitation of marginalized communities within the entertainment industry. Through case studies, the text analyzes instances of cultural borrowing, considering ethical implications and artistic merit. The approach is multidisciplinary, drawing on sociology, media studies, and legal scholarship to provide a comprehensive understanding.

 
The book progresses by first establishing foundational concepts, then diving into case studies of film and television. It also offers practical guidelines for media creators and tools for media consumers to critically analyze cultural representations. Ultimately, the book aims to equip readers with the tools to navigate the complex debates surrounding cultural appropriation, fostering informed discussions about media ethics and social justice.

    Textile Landscapes demonstrates how to develop your approach to textile art with a focus on using found objects and paint and stitch on cloth and paper. 
    Cas explains how to exploit the contrast between the hands-on textural quality of working with fabrics and threads and the spontaneity and movement of brush marks to lend a painterly quality to your work.
    
    She begins with the basics – keeping a sketchbook to generate ideas, painting  and stitching on cloth and on paper and working digitally; Inspiring Landscapes looks at natural and urban space, the changing seasons and great landscapes as well as intimate spaces and travel diaries; Painting and Marking with Cloth explains the practical aspects of painting and dyeing cloth and how to make connections between paint, print, dye, stencil and stitch; Stitch-scapes looks at the different forms of landscape, experimenting with photographs and prints and how to translate those images using ink, stitch, abstract and collage techniques and then at how to transform the image using digital techniques; On Closer Inspection covers using elements and details from landscape and the environment as found objects and for research; finally People and Place explores the relationship we have with the outdoors and the built environment, as well as personal interpretations of place.
    
    The book includes artworks by the author that explore the UK, USA, Europe and Australia, as well as works by other internationally renowned textile artists. A creative guide ideal for textile artists of all levels – students, teachers and practising artists and makers – to make unique and beautiful work inspired by the world around us.
