N2 - The conversation weaves through a series of feminist, collaborative art projects that have been initiated by Yee and which are situated in and through practices of tikar (woven mat) making. I-lann’s practice resonates with themes pertaining to: ecologies, materialities, collaborative practices, decolonisation and the politics of display of vernacular craft in contemporary art contexts. However, perhaps most importantly, this conversation also includes a series of thick descriptions; anecdotes and precious primary material, situated in historic and contemporary worlds that might be hosted by a tikar.
