Performance Strategies

“Aloha in Drag” investigates how Hawaiianness and aloha can be performed and felt in spaces where Hawaiianness is not obviously being performed or “confessed.” Looking at the performance strategies of Cocoa Chandelier, a well-known Hawaiian drag queen and performance artist working in Honolulu. Chandelier’s performances speak to a frequently marginalized Kānaka Maoli LGBT and local/settler LGBT population in Hawaiʻi, cultivating a shared sense of place and cultural belonging. These spaces allow the performance of aloha in drag, a performance of Hawaiianness that is unidentifiable to non-Hawaiian audiences, but can be deployed as a strategy to resist the ongoing subjection and hyper-commodification of Hawaiian indigeneity.

Cultural Belonging

This chapter aims to discuss the dialectic relationship between interior environments of heritage buildings and users and the importance of preserving interior elements as communicators of cultural significance. Today the conservation practice and reuse proposals focus on preserving the architectural envelope of buildings rather than interior aspects. Conversely, interiors need specific safeguard and care, not only due to their cultural significance but also because they are the part most closely connected to the real life of users. In the perspective of cultural conservation, existing buildings represent the continuity of cultural values from the past to the future, and at this point, interior architecture is crucial as it provides an authentic interaction between users and spaces conveying all these values. Therefore, the conservation of interior envelope and interior elements rises as a very important issue to be discussed, affecting the occupant's well-being in a very subjective and sometimes unconscious way (considering the cultural belonging).

Other Spaces is a collaborative creative arts exhibition project that explores visual and material expressions of cultural identity with a particular focus on museum collections. This project aims to provide a rich examination – visual, emotional and intellectual – of the multiple cultural narratives that contribute to the social fabric of Australia through a unique marriage of contemporary photomedia and creative writing practice. This project explores the ways that migrants and refugees have found to express their cultural identity through the material objects they have brought with them to Australia. Many of these objects are not only of great personal value but often of cultural, historical and religious significance. Some are very ordinary everyday objects but they can be highly evocative and symbolic of the relationship between culture and identity, and between the places of origin and an individual's present home in Australia. This article, through a combination of photography, creative text and scholarly discussion, will focus specifically on Italo-Australian migrants and on some of the material objects that they have donated to museum collections, and use these objects to explore notions of cultural belonging and identity.
