Irene Lyla Lee Profiled The Artist Geraldine Datuin
For Observer, Irene Lyla Lee wrote a profile about the artist Geraldine Datuin — a Filipina/American artist painting and studying botany as a form of solidarity with the indigenous people of Guam and migration of cultures on Pacific Islands. The artist goes by the pseudonym SIGWARZ.
Lyla Lee writes, “Datuin’s skills as a botanist help her create narratives and dialogue with concepts of indigeneity for Pacific Island and immigrant communities whose histories of colonization are interconnected and reach far back while continuing to this day.”
Lyla Lee’s writing has appeared in Hyperallergic, The Brooklyn Rail, and more.
