Description
Astria Suparak’s cross-disciplinary projects address complex and urgent issues (like institutionalized racism, feminism, and colonialism) made accessible through a popular culture lens, such as science fiction movies, rock music, memes, and sports. Straddling creative and scholarly work, Suparak’s projects often take the form of publicly available tools and databases, chronicling subcultures and omitted perspectives.
